Mukumbarí Cable Car reopening and visitor growth

Overview

The Mukumbarí Cable Car system in Mérida, Venezuela, resumed commercial operations on August 19 following a closure that began in May. The shutdown was necessitated by maintenance and electrical system upgrades, including the installation of new frequency converters and grounding network reconfigurations to ensure user safety.

Tourism Minister Daniela Cabello noted that the reopening was delayed from its original August schedule due to logistical issues caused by a double earthquake on June 24, which hindered the arrival of essential equipment. Since the resumption of service, the system has attracted more than 40,000 visitors.

Recent reports indicate that local tourism in Mérida is experiencing a rise in demand for financed travel packages as residents attempt to manage economic constraints while accessing the site.
