Funicolare di Catanzaro / Catanzaro Funicular
The Catanzaro Funicular (Italian: Funicolare di Catanzaro) is a funicular railway in the city of Catanzaro, Calabria, Italy. It connects the upper part of the city, in Piazza Roma, with Catanzaro Sala via a stop at Piano Casa. The line carries around 580,000 passengers per year.
The current route was opened in 1998 with the track bed and tunnel of the funicular section of the former Automotofunicolare di Catanzaro, a hybrid electric tram and funicular that operated between 1910 and 1954. The reopened line was operated by the Ferrovie della Calabria, whose concession expired in 2014. The line was closed in mid-2014 due to the poor state of the infrastructure, and in November of the same year the city of Catanzaro published a tender for a modernization of the funicular. Works worth EUR 0.5 million were carried out to equip new surveillance, control and communication equipment and the line was reopened on 12 November 2016
