    The Reitersberg Tunnel

The Reitersberg Tunnel starts at the height of the municipality of Oberwohlsbach and ends to the north at the height of the municipality of Fornbach. The tunnel portals are located to suit the topography so that the cuttings are no more than 18 metres deep.

Tunnelling is proceeding towards the middle of the tunnel from both portals simultaneously. Modern methods of measurement ensure that the tunnellers meet in the middle with accuracy down to millimetre level. The excavated material is being transported to nearby areas where the landscape is modelled.

 

Facts and figures:

  • Total length: 2.975 meter
  • Duration of the project: 2009 - 2013
