ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) - One of Disneyland's most popular rides has reopened after the company declined to appeal a workplace safety case.
The Orange County Register reports Space Mountain reopened Friday evening.
The attraction was closed in April after state officials said safety rules were violated when a contractor fell and suffered broken bones while cleaning Space Mountain's slanted roof.
The contract company was fined nearly $61,000 for the safety violations. The California Division of Occupational Safety and Health proposed a nearly $235,000 penalty against Disney in connection with the contractor's injury.
Disney did not appeal by Friday's deadline.
Disney closed two other rides - the Matterhorn Bobsleds in Disneyland and Soarin' Over California in Disney California Adventure - to evaluate the safety of employees who maintain them.
Both attractions have reopened.
