The Russian State Expert Review has approved a project for a two-seat aerial tramway on the northeastern slope of Mount Glukharya in Altai Krai. It is located on the southern Ural ridge Zigalga. The mountain's height is almost 1000 meters above sea level.

The construction of the lift will be another step in the development of the ski resort's infrastructure. The length of the aerial tramway along the slope will be 1863 meters. It will be able to serve up to 1200 visitors per hour.

Particular attention during the design of the cable car was paid to the safety system. For example, the facility will be equipped with various sensors that signal wear of brake pads or control the speed and tension of the cable. If there is a deviation from the set parameters, protective devices will send a signal to the switches, interrupting the power supply to the cable car. In case the rollers of the clamp on the cable are not securely fastened, a special mechanical device is provided to prevent the suspension seats from being sent to the line.
