14/05/2014
The license has been approved for the construction of the new Albula rail tunnel on the Thusis-Tirano section, part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site since 2008. The existing Albula tunnel, opened in 1903, has severe structural damage. The EUR286 million project involves construction of a new tunnel parallel to the existing one at 30 m separation, conversion of the old tunnel into a safety tunnel, and modernization of Preda and Spinas stations. The two 5.86 km-long tubes will be connected with 12 bypasses, one every 450 m. Visit https://www.news.admin.ch/message/index.html?lang=it&msg-id=52922. 20/14.
