Breaking Ground for the Vienna - Bratislava Railway Conversion
September 2016
The groundbreaking ceremony on September 28, 2016 kicked off the conversion of the “longest straight route“ (approx. 32.5 km) in the Austrian Railway network. Converting the one-track diesel route to an electric high-performance route for continuous operation harbors a special challenge.
Therefore the project will be implemented in 3 modular phases:
Module 1a: Two-track, fully electric conversion in the partial Vienna segment from Stadlau up to the Vienna Aspern North stop
Module 1b: Segmental two-track expansion and electrification from Vienna Aspern North up to state border next to Marchegg
Module 2: Buildinga second tracks on the one-track Segments.
In this project WERNER CONSULT is responsible for the permit application process in collaboration with a planning team, and has been commissioned for the first ÖBA construction segment in collaboration with another work consortium.
