Sewage

Lovat and Construcciones Sando have recently signed a contract for the supply of a refurbished Lovat RME185SE series 20002 earth pressure balance TBM. The 4.7 m-diameter mixed face TBM will be used in the construction of the Coslada sewer tunnel in the suburbs of Madrid. This will be the TBM's third project, following successful drives in North America and more recently on the Olympic power lines in the Lower Lea valley near London. Superficial geology along the 3,650 m-long tunnel alignment consists of man-made fill underlain by quaternary sandy clayey deposits. Fragments of flint overlying tertiary deposits, comprised of highly plastic clays with silty sands and dispersed crystals of gypsum are also expected. At the tunnel horizon, geology along the first drive is expected to be gypsum, and the second drive consisting of clay, sandy clay and fractured gypsum. The TBM will be shipped from its current location to the jobsite in Spain, where it will be fully inspected prior to undergoing a complete refurbishment under Lovat supervision. Tunnelling is expected to commence in early 2008. Visit www.sando.net and www.lovat.com 40/07.

The contract forms the main part of the access (6.9 km) and complements the 1.9 km section that ADIF has under construction as part of the refurbishment of Chamartin station. The existing Hortaleza dual track, about 3 km long, will have to be doubled up to the M-40 junction. The underground access to Barajas, which is 3.950 m long, starts from the M-40. After Valdebebas Park, the path reaches in tunnel the future station at the new terminal T-4. Read E-News Weekly 44/2006.

The time frame for construction is 34 months. The length of the new airport access, between Chamartin station and Terminal T-4, will be 8.8 km. The contract represents the main part of the line, 6.9 km in all, and complements the contract currently implemented by ADIF in the first 1.9 km, as part of the complete refurbishment of the north area at Chamartin station. The new infrastructure is divided in two sections. The first section will quadruplicate the twin-track railway in Hortaleza, on an approximate length of 2,200 metres running from the junction with the upgrading works commissioned by ADIF in the north area of Chamartin station to the crossing with the M-40 motorway. On this section, a station will be built in Manotera, at the crossing of the new suburban line with the Pinar de Chamartin-Sanchinarro-Las Tablas tram line. The station will also make the area more accessible and provide and intermodal interchange between the two transport means.The second section is a new dual track, fully underground. The tunnel length is 4.7 kilometres, whereof 2 km will be built using cut-and-cover methods and 2.7 km mining method. On this section there will be a crossing under the Valdebebas Park roundabout and a station in Valdebebas. It is a subterranean station situated in the area concentrating an extension of the Juan Carlos I trade fair, the Real Madrid sports facilities and the Campus of Justice. After Valdebebas Park, the line crosses in tunnel the La Plata stream. There, channelling of the waters is planned to facilitate the crossing. From there on, the line will travel in a mined tunnel, until the crossing with the north-south axis and the airport authority's land, connecting finally from south with diaphragm walls already built at the south head of Barajas station.

Ineco secured a EUR590,000 contract for conceptual design for the extension of suburban rail line C-5 from Mostoles to Navalcarnero. The path of this train, an hybrid between a suburban line and a light rail, will not be really an extension of Line C-5 since it will start from Mostoles Central, connecting with the Metrosur line. This extension to Navalcarnero will travel below ground on 3 km in Mostoles, about 75% of the route, and will include four new stations. New underground stations will be built in Mostoles Central, Mostoles El Soto and at the future stop at the Logistic Platform. Visit www.ineco.es 45/06.Open call for tenders, deadline 25th June, 2007 for concession contract for the design, construction and operation of the new railway line from Mí³stoles Central to Navalcarnero, south of Madrid. The 15 km-long line will serve six stations, with reservation for a seventh, and 46% of it will run below ground. The line starts in Mostoles Central, where a new subterranean station will be built to connect suburban line C-5 with Line 12 Metrosur. Then it continues underground to the new Mostoles El Soto station, then leaves the urban area to pass beneath motorway A-5 and arrives at grade in the future Puerta del Atlantico station, that will provide service to a logistics platform. From that point, the line runs parallel to the Extremadura motorway before going underground to avoid Parque Coimbra. This new tunnel of more than three kilometres in Parque Coimbra's area will also make it possible to build another station, if the demand arises. Once more, the line will return to the surface and cross the Guadarrama river on a 525 m-long viaduct. Finally, the trains arrive in Navalcarnero, where two stations will be built, the first in the outskirts and the second in the city centre.
