Canillo parish council formalized agreements with four landowners on Tuesday for the terrain needed to advance the Armiana cable car project, linking the village to the ski area.
The signing ceremony took place in the council's meeting room. The pacts cover land around the Armiana chairlift base and include a purchase deal with Casa Fontana, Casa Toni, and Casa Enreulat, plus an early land transfer agreement with Piros SL. Officials called the move a key advancement for sustainable growth, improved urban planning, and safeguarding vital natural areas.
The project involves seven landowners overall, with five now secured. Council head Jordi Alcobé hailed the agreements as "a very important milestone for Canillo's future." He expressed gratitude to the owners for their willingness, trust, and spirit of collaboration, noting that progress on this strategic initiative hinges on their support. Alcobé added that the council has prioritized dialogue and consensus from the start, as major parish projects require collective effort. The deals offer legal security to everyone involved and pave the way for the cable car and other developments in the years ahead.
A flyover rights agreement with Cal Branqueta representatives is expected shortly, rounding out the essential legal framework. Consent remains pending from two landowners, which could necessitate judicial steps if unresolved.
