With the words of Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte last night, who confirmed to "Otto e Mezzo" how we cannot afford the Christmas holidays and the reopening of the lifts, "for everything that revolves around", the world of snow finds itself with the very strong risk of a continuous closure also towards the new year.
The Regions are fighting, just as the Azzurri champions intervened in these hours to express a common thought, that is to prevent an authentic economic disaster for the entire sector.
From Alberto Tomba to Federica Brignone, from Gustavo Thoeni to Giorgio Rocca, asked about the columns of “Open”. The former Valtellinese slalomist thinks the same way: “In addition to the economic damage, failure to reopen would send a lot of people into depression, because skiing is freedom. It is an outdoor sport and precautions can be taken to allow people to go to the mountains safely. In order to open the plant engineers would adapt to any organization, as the stations are already doing to ensure that the delivery of material is made in large places.
The restaurants have adapted like all Italian places with four people at the table - continues Rocca - and in order to go to the mountains, people would also eat outdoors. The lifts now carry 3 thousand people per hour and a method has already been studied to limit the turnout to avoid crowds. Just make sure everyone's day doesn't start at 9-10. Better to work with a few people than to stay closed ".
