- The Scarborough and Whitby Area Committee voted against decommissioning the Whitby Cliff Lift, which has been closed since 2022, urging a reassessment of repair costs.
- Council members questioned the £5.5 million repair estimate and called for detailed analysis alongside year-round monitoring of water damage.
- A petition signed by more than 5,500 people emphasized the lift’s critical role in accessibility and community identity.
- The committee requested a public consultation on the lift’s future and asked Anglo American to re-evaluate its condition after winter.
The Cliff Lift symbolises inclusivity and accessibility, and its existence is not an amenity, it’s a necessity, and part of our town’s charm.— Cllr Phil Trumper, who presented his petition to save the Cliff Lift.
