Lift Access Restored at Cas Català Beach

Calvià Town Council has completed the full refurbishment of the lift providing access to Cas Català Beach, an essential facility for people with reduced mobility. The project involved an investment of €101,000 and was completed five weeks ahead of the original schedule.

The works involved the complete replacement of the former lift system, which had exceeded its service life after more than seventeen years of operation in a particularly demanding environment. Its seafront location had caused the installation to deteriorate progressively, resulting in more frequent breakdowns and increased maintenance requirements.

The new electric lift has been specifically engineered to withstand these environmental conditions. The installation features a treated steel structure, marine-grade stainless-steel cladding and sealed systems designed for outdoor use.

These specifications will improve the equipment’s resistance to corrosion, extend its service life and reduce faults caused by continuous exposure to the coastal environment. The refurbishment will also provide beach users with a more stable, safe and reliable service.
