Monday is the last day for people to ride the Palm Springs Aerial Tramway before it closes for nearly a month for annual maintenance.

The tramway will cease operations Sept. 7 until roughly Oct. 4 for track rope repositioning, changing of pendant ropes and mechanical and electrical testing.

“We regret the inconvenience our annual maintenance shutdown causes our guests, but since we run seven days a week year-round, this time allows us to complete projects we cannot do when we are open to the public,” Tramway general manager Nancy Nichols said.

The Oct. 4 reopening is a tentative date, according to the company.
