Austria: Construction on Semmering tunnel to start in 2012?

Austrian Federal Railways ÖBB announced, that construction on the Semmering railway tunnel can begin already in 2012 or in 2013 and should finish by 2023.



The 28 km long Semmering tunnel is a very controversial project, because of its possible impact on the environment. According to the representatives of ÖBB’s infrastructure division, the project’s environmental impact assessment should be submitted by Austrian Railways in the middle of this year.

The estimated cost of Semmering tunnel’s construction is EUR 2.8 billion. The town of Semmering is a ski resort in the Lower Austria state.
