Looking on the web cam for VT in the town there seems to be some kind of building work going on for a lift. Anyone know if this is a new lift or just updated one?

Good to see an upgrade of the 3valleys 1&2 chair lifts, it was quicker to ski further down and take the Plein Sud lift. Now this gives more choice and will make that main area a little less busy with more skiers taking a more direct route.
Better performance in the wind will be welcome too, closure meant queues late in the day for Plein Sud.
