Palm Springs Aerial Tramway to close for maintenance

The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway will close for annual maintenance next week, officials said Tuesday. The tram will close Sept. 8 and is tentatively scheduled to reopen Sept. 20, spokesman Greg Purdy said.

Workers will exchange a tram car’s carriage, test loads and emergency
systems, and clean, refurbish and paint the tram’s two stations, he said.

“These projects are always scheduled during our shutdown period to
prevent any disruption to our guests’ overall tram experience.” said tram
general manager Rob Parkins.
