Albvorland Tunnel
The Albvorlandtunnel is a planned 8,176 m long railwail tunnel for the new Wendlingen–Ulm high-speed railway in Baden-Württemberg. It will underpass a part of the town Kirchheim-Lindorf and Bundesautobahn 8 with junction Kirchheim-East in the industrial area of Dettingen unter Teck [1] The 8,176 m long building is between kilometer 26,077 and 34,253. It is on the boundary of Wendlingen am Neckar, Kirchheim unter Teck, Lindorf and Dettingen unter Teck. It underpasses motorway 8 (km 32,259 bis ca. 33,9) and also a high pressure gas line and a NATO fuel line.
The tunnel traverses under and through layers of black jura. The biggest superposition is 65 meters,[2] the smallest superposition is 9,50 m. High water pressure is expected.
The call for competition European-wide had 8 bidders. The order has an amount of 380 million € and was given on 18. December 2015 the Swiss company Implenia.[3]
The work should be finished within 46 months.
In a planning paper from the Deutsche Bahn (March 2012) plan approval was expected for 2014, start of work 2014 and end of work in 2021.[4] Spring 2014 the contractor delayed the plan approval to beginning of 2015 and the start to 2016.
Costs
The costs of 270 million € were announced in a newspaper in April 2014 . The Cabinet of Germany said this could be true.[5] In April 2009 the rough costs were calculated by 16,5 million € per kilometer and tube. The total cost of section 2.1 will be 798,7 million € (state 2010).
