Serfaus station

Serfaus mini metro

The village of Serfaus is an Austrian Alpine community with a ski resort that can accommodate up to 91,660 people per hour.

As the streets were too narrow to accommodate the flow of cars and visitors, traffic within the village was banned in the 1970s.
In 1985, an underground funicular was put into service following extensive excavation and underground construction work. By 2007, it had become clear that the equipment needed to be modernized.
A mini metro on an air cushion was then installed to meet the new technical requirements and the growing flow of visitors. Numerous technical constraints had to be taken into account due to the mountainous terrain and the angle of each module (between 1 and 3 degrees).
