Pause in the demolition of the tower at Plan Praz

The demolition of the first concrete tower in Plan Praz has barely begun, and it is already stopped. Last week, the weather was particularly annoying for the workers. Their equipment is in place, but the very low temperatures have prevented the continuation of the work. With the mild weather this week, the demolition operation could resume, but the scrapping of the first tower will not be finished at Christmas. The "passerelle" already installed could even stay the entire winter. The price of this demolition for the first pylon is 200000 euros. The demolition of the entire line of concrete pylons is scheduled for the next 3 to 4 years, with an overall budget of 1 million euros.
