The capacity of the lift will be 1000 persons per hour. A new lift will connect Smolyan with Pamporovo, the TV tower and Snejanka Tower. The local people and the guests of the town of Smolyan will soon be able to use the cable car to reach Pamporovo. The project has already given the huge investors interest, announced Dora Yankova. Two project teams have developed the conceptions for the transport equipment, which will cost about 25 million BGN. The cable car will be 7 km long and will considerably shorten the distance between Smolyan and Pamporovo. The plan for the first part of the lift is to be 5 km long and to be 100% transport connected. It will start from Smolyan and will carry six persons in a cabin. The distance to Raykovski Livadi side, where the middle station will be situated will be taken for less than 10 minutes. The lift will continue to Snejanka peak, where the tourists will be directly downhilled along the white slopes. The technical research has already been completed. The mayor of Smolyan Dora Yankova hopes that the construction and the installation of the equipment will start together with the development of the resort's main part “Raikovski Livadi”. The municipal council has taken the decision for the hotels and villas to be higher not more than four floors in order to preserve the nature and the natural landscape of the terrain.
