TURIN-LYON
The new French-Italian freight and passenger link at the heart of the Mediterranean Corridor.
It connects the Iberian Peninsula to Eastern Europe, passing through Italy via the Turin-Trieste route. A central part of the new line is the 65-kilometer long cross-border section from Susa to Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne in France to Bussoleno in Piedmont, crossing the Alps via the Mont Cenis Base Tunnel.
An extraordinary, 57-kilometer long infrastructure featuring a single-track double-bore configuration, with cross connections, called by-passes, that ensure a safe egress of travellers in case of emergency.
Italferr, in a grouping with Systra France and Pini Group, has been involved for many years in the design of Turin-Lyon and is currently involved in the Mont Cenis Base Tunnel Works Management and High Supervision activities.
Italferr was awarded the two tenders called by Tunnel Euralpin Lyon Turin (TELT) related to the works for CO 6-7 site in the French section and for CO3-4 and CO1-2 site in the Italian section.
| CO1 WORK SITE |
| The CO1 Work Site concerns the construction of a 3.6 km interconnection section that, through the Bussoleno Interconnection Tunnels (2 km), connects the New Turin Lyon Line to the historical RFI line. |
| CO2 WORK SITE |
| The CO2 Work Site concerns the construction of a 2.5 km section that, crossing the Susa Plain, connects the Interconnection Tunnels to the Italy-side entrance to the Base Tunnel. |
Work is scheduled for completion in 2029.
