Mega construction site Fehmarnbelt: special ships and rare finds in view!

in the Fehmarnbelt is an impressive progression in the construction of the Fehmarnbelt tunnel. Huge special ships came to the Baltic Sea to make important preparations for the lowering process of the first tunnel element. These unique watercraft, such as the “Maya” ship, are essential for the future construction and prepare the underground for the tunnel.

The project, which is one of the most important construction projects in Europe, has been in focus for some time. The special ships are equipped with advanced machines that require precisely work in the water. The challenge is not only in the construction of the tunnel itself, but also in logistics, which is connected to the transport and lowering of the elements.

challenges and developments

parallel to the progress in tunnel construction There are also adjustments to the rail network. There is a moving factory between Neustadt and Haffkrug, which ensures comprehensive renovation. Here a 4.5 -kilometer route is renewed by Deutsche Bahn to prepare the hinterland connection to the tunnel. This work is particularly important because the expansion of the rail network not only affects the region, but also the entire traffic structure.

The uncertain future of the rail connection by Altenkretreme brings with it. In order to implement the plans, sports facilities and the local fire brigade must give way. The affected citizens are waiting for information about a schedule for the new arrangements - clear communication is urgently required here.

The renovation of the Fehmarnsund Bridge, which is faced with drastically increased costs of over 90 million euros and numerous delays, illustrates the complexity of the projects. This bridge, a listed building, is not only a traffic artery, but also an important symbolic element for the region.
