Rapid dismantling: Special machines of the U2 construction site are removed

Only recently occurred major challenges on the construction site of the U2 pilgramgasse. On Wednesday, the last major special machines, including drilling wagons and tunnel excavators, were broken down and removed from the excavation pit with a crane. This measure had become necessary to examine the damage caused by floods and to safely mount the parked machines.

The circumstances have already led to a delayed construction process, and the Viennese lines are now required to obtain replacement devices in close cooperation with the construction companies. The aim is to be able to resume work on the U2 construction site as soon as possible. The flood not only caused material damage, but also endangered the comprehensive schedule of the construction work.

Type of damage and measures

The flood damage is considerable and the exact assessment continues. With the recovery of the machines, an important step towards normalizing the construction site was taken. Even if details on the damage are still sparse, the situation shows that the effects of the flood are far -reaching.
