Project overview
Forming a key part of the “mainline for Europe” development, seeing a high-speed rail link between Paris and Bratislava, a distance of nearly one thousand miles. 35 miles of new railway, 19 miles of tunnelling and 16 miles of high-speed lines, it is proposed to revolutionise public transport across the city and connect Stuttgart to surrounding regions and neighbouring countries.
Siltbuster Solution
Groundwater ingress in the tunnels contains elevated concentrations of suspended solids created from the cutting face and an alkaline pH value derived from cementitious products used. 3No. 150m3/hr and 2No. 40m3/hr complete automated chemical dosing systems were deployed to ensure environmental compliance.
