The Arthurs Seat SkyLift
Our guest speaker was Hans Brugman CEO of the currently being constructed Sky Lift
Hans is the Chief Executive Officer of Arthurs Seat Skylift Pty Ltd.
Since 2010, he has worked extensively with Victorian Government authorities, including Parks Victoria and the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, and consulted with local business and community groups to modernize and re-establish this iconic tourist attraction, with a focus on safety, accessibility for all and minimal impact on the environment.
Hans has previously owned and managed several successful businesses in the car and project management industries. A qualified aircraft engineer, he also has former experience in operating ski lifts in Victorian and international resorts.
Hans is a volunteer leader for Disability Surfing Australia, a passionate snow skier and also enjoys rock climbing and travelling.
Hans is very passionate about his project and let us know just how much thought has been put into the planning of the project. The project does not only involve the construction and operation on the lift but its impact on the environment. Much effort is going into the removal of weeds around the site, fostering of native vegetation, and protection of native fauna. Planning for bush fire evacuation has also been thought through, as is access for people with mobility issues.
