Opening Alpine passes

Winter is coming to an end in the mountains of Uri. Before the pass roads in the canton of Uri and the neighbouring cantons can be opened to traffic, the existing snow masses have to be milled away and cleared with large machines. In addition, signalling and railings must be installed and other measures such as rock clearing and maintenance must be carried out to ensure safe traffic use.
