Shortcut of the Century
Gigantic Project about to be completed.
A total of 57 km long and 2,300 meters under rock: 17 years after the start of construction, one of Europe's most important transportation projects is almost complete.
The latest tunnel in the Alp Transit project runs through the heart of the Gotthard Massif, connecting Northern and Southern Europe, shortening the travel time between Zürich and Lugano by 45 minutes, and unburdening people and nature.
Seals from Freudenberg Sealing Technologies kept the huge tunnel boring machines running as they devoured their way meter by meter through the stone of the massif.
