Palm Springs Tramway Gets New Cars
The Palm Springs Aerial Tramway, which takes riders from the California desert resort up the side of Mt. San Jacinto, is to reopen Saturday with new cars that offer a rotating panorama of the Coachella Valley and beyond. The tramway had been closed since June while the Swiss-made cars were installed. Despite the project’s $12-million price tag, round-trip rides will cost the same as before the closure, a spokesman said: $19.95 adults, $12.50 ages 3 to 12. Reservations are not necessary. The tramway is open daily; hours vary. Tel. (888) 515-TRAM.
