Successful breakthrough during construction of the Vienna underground railway

On 16 August, the breakthrough was celebrated during the excavation of the running tunnel “T4” into the main shaft at Friedrich Schmidplatz in the construction lot U2/22-Rathaus. This construction section is part of the overall U2/U5 line interchange project. The newly designed Rathaus station is the crossing point between the new U5 line and the existing U2 line and is located in a densely built-up inner-city area.

Geodata has been commissioned by the contracted consortium to carry out the construction and tunnelling surveying and to supply and install the geotechnical instrumentation. We congratulate our construction site team on their successful work!
