Introduction
Main Challenges of Long (and Deep) Tunnels
Tunnel length leeds to long construction time Mechanization / automation of procedures, trend to the use of TBM
in order to increase performance
Intermediate points of attack (if feasible) to cut construction time
Geological variety, (high overburden)
Investigations Not possible / reasonable over the entire length
Higher remaining risks compared to other projects
Logistics Long transport distances
Access shafts and galleries
Muck treatment, material deposits

The Modernisation of the Railway Infrastructure
Shall Enhance Transferring Traffic from Road to Rail
(Source: www.alptransit .ch)
The political pressure from
the EU to have more traffic
capacity through the Alps
resulted in a political
decision in Switzerland that
this trafic should be on rails

What’s the Gotthard Axis?
The Gotthard axis includes the
Zimmerberg Base Tunnel (works
are supended)
Gotthard Base Tunnel GBT (under
construction)
Ceneri Base Tunnel (under

(Source: www.alptransit .ch)
The new route makes freight
transportation more productive and
passenger traffic faster

Reasons of the Swiss Government for the NEAT
Transport political: transfer long distance traffic from road to
rail
Environmental: reduction the number of trucks, protection of
the environment
National politics: network instead of only one axis, improved
connection between north and south
Economical: connection to Europe‘s high speed rail network
European political: Switzerland strengthens its central role
in Europe

Public Votations on the NEAT Project
For the NEAT scheme the Swiss population voted three
times:
on the introducing of a tax on the transportation of heavy
goods (freight)
on the overall financing of the project
on the technical scheme: network instead of only one axis

Credit versus Contract Costs
The NEAT credit:
was established at a very early phase and was approved by
the government
it was based on a ‚probable‘ geological situation and has a
reserve lump sum for ‚unexpected events and conditions‘
The NEAT costs:
the cost is the sum of all contracted works
the cost forecast is constantly (i.e. every 6 months) up-dated
according to the progress of the planning and/or the work and
compared with the credit.
The margin between costs and credit was originally + 25%.
The final costs can now be estimated with +-5%.

Cost Overruns: Magnitude and Reasons
There had been a constant increase in investments and
costs for the Gotthard Basetunnel (primilary figures)
Magnitude in total: approx > 3 Mia CHF (ca 40%)
Reasons: Constracts and construction: approx 2%
Geology: approx 18%
Improvements for the public and the environment: approx 7%
Political delays and financial restrictions: approx 21%
Safety and state-of-the-art technology: approx 53%

Other Tunnel Types than Railway Tunnels
The integrated design process is dependent on the
actual conditions of
• the tunnel
• the traffic and composition
• economy
• Safety and rescue concepts
• operational conditions
• etc.
For another tunnel even of similar length some significant
parameters may deviate.
Hereby another concept for the tunnel may prove to be preferable.

constructional risks and

have been evaluated at
least every 6 months

Risk management is the systematic process of identifying,
analyzing and responding to project risks.
Risk management is
not only a single event
a continuous process during the entire project.
Therefore the risk control is part of the project life cycle from
project initiation to project completion.
