East Hill Lift Re-opening (27th March 2010) :: Shared Description
The East Hill lift was re-opened on 27th March 2010, after being closed for almost 3 years. Over 2009-2010 new wooden wheelchair friendly cars were installed replacing the 1970's fibreglass cars.
Hundreds of people turned out to watch the Mayor of Hastings cut the ribbon at 11am. A number of people were dressed in Edwardian dress, and some pre-WWII cars were on display, along with 'Happy Harold' an Old Trolley Bus.
The lift was open to the public for free for the day, the usual cost would be £2.20 for an adult.
