N01.22 Motorway section Schönbühl – Kirchberg, Lindenrain rest area upgrade
The service building at the Lindenrain motorway rest area has been equipped with a new toilet module made of chrome steel; construction was completed at the end of 2023. The new toilet module offers better protection against vandalism, and it will be possible to continue its use in the event of a future replacement of the service building. R+R supported the Federal Road Office’s overall project manager in project planning and execution.
ERTMS Netherlands
Other countries, same problems: Modern railway technology requires time and money to implement. Jost Lüking was member of a team of six European experts on the ETCS train control system who assessed the status of the national ETCS program for the Dutch Parliament in mid-2023. Our Second Opinion formulated recommendations on program governance and management, on the technical, spatial and temporal scope of the program, on system integration and integration management, and last but not least on program costs and their current forecast. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure and Waterways published the Second Opinion at the beginning of November.
EP Hagnau – Augst N02
Within the Hagnau – Augst motorway maintenance project, structural changes to the western tunnel portal (direction Basel/Germany) have to be carried out to enable longitudinal ventilation in both traffic directions. We are pleased that the plans for the extension of the western portal of Schweizerhalle tunnel have officially been approved. This allows us to finalise the detailed design and approach the contractor submission process according to our project schedule.

MOTORWAY MAINTENANCE PROJECT LIMMATTAL INTERCHANGE – SCHLIEREN EXIT
The 30-year old Limmattal interchange – Schlieren exit section of the A1 motorway features six lanes and has a length of five kilometres. Within the framework of the Federal Roads Office‘s maintenance planning program, extensive refurbishment was undertaken in 2013 and 2014.
Operations within the corrective maintenance project encompassed the refurbishment of the pavement, adjustments to the guidance and protection systems, the provision of new cable conduit blocks, as well as corrective maintenance on structures and drainage systems. Various maintenance measures were carried out on pavement, bridge deck, shoulder curbs and sealings of the Limmat bridge, while expansion joints and bearings were replaced. Several under- and overpasses were refurbished as well. These construction measures allow for an additional 15 to 20 years of service, without any further intervention required.
A subsequent project phase will include the construction of a new road waste water-treatment plant close to the Oberengstringen service area. It is also planned to adapt the exit lane leading to the service area in order to comply with current technical standards, as well as to add electric cabinets.
R+R supported the project management team of the Federal Roads Office by providing comprehensive project management services. These included the procurement of multiple planning mandates and the submission of the construction works, project controlling of current contracts, cost monitoring and –planning as well as construction site management.
