The new Rendlbahn, St Anton am Arlberg is underway

I have been in contact today with the Arlberg Bergbahnen and the Apartment La Vita in St Anton and things are moving fast on the new Rendlbahn. The old Rendlbahn that has run since 1974 is now fully demolished and work is underway to build the new base station at the existing bus terminal close to the new Galzigbahn. I am trying to get hold of a few more design details but basically the new Rendlbahn is part of a major redevelopment of the lift systems in St Anton, centring them around the heart of the resort and linking both the Galzigbahn and the Rendlbahn from a central location, with the bus terminal that serves the outlying areas of St Anton am Arlberg terminating at the point of embarkation for the 2 lifts. One thing that is for sure, the Rendl area is certainly going to become more popular as a result of the new developments, precisely the reason for the huge investments required but likely to sadden the locals who have had the Rendl region to themselves for many, many winters.
