Ligerz Tunnel

From Underfoot




The Ligerz Tunnel is a railway tunnel under construction at the southern foot of the Jura Railway line in Switzerland. The last single-track section of the southern Jura line is to be eliminated by the double-track tunnel. This bottleneck between the service stations at Chavannes and Twann on the Biel–Neuchâtel route is currently preventing rail traffic from being densified. The planned costs amount to 431.9 million Swiss francs.
