Don’t think anyone expected the work on the new cable car to be finished on time, because, are they ever?

Worth adding, Dursey Island is also the start / end of the 4700 km E8 Walking Route which passes through Ukraine.

We had good reason to acknowledge this then & now.
Context of people, time & place.
