We are pleased to provide managenent support and construction site management for the N06.28 NEB EM Lyss Süd - Schönbühl motorway maintenance project on behalf of the Federal Road Authority’s Thun branch. The project includes replacement of the pavement as well as extensive measures on the engineering structures. The construction work is scheduled to be carried out between 2025 and 2027.
A1 Opening day of the Gubrist tunnel
Another bottleneck removed: On July 3rd, Federal Councilor Albert Rösti officially opened the new third tube of the Gubrist motorway tunnel, in the presence of representatives of the canton and city of Zurich as well as the local communities and members of the project team. Now three westbound traffic lanes are open to road users travelling in the direction of Bern.

SMARTRAIL 4.0 Management Support
SBB intends to modernize the railway operations with the implementation of the smartrail 4.0 program. Old systems are being replaced and the potential for automation and optimization is utilised. As a result, future train services can be operated reliably and the capacity of the existing network can be increased. Also, the employees will enjoy a safer work environment. The entire system’s costs will be kept under control, ensuring that the railway remains competitive in the long term. The smartrail 4.0 modernization program supports the railways in providing an even more attractive public transport option, with more frequent trains where necessary, lower costs, shorter travel times on main lines and faster freight traffic. More trains will require more train drivers, even if the job requirements may change. The customer’s benefit will be a continuous train sequence which reduces the impact of delays and thus increases operational stability, as well as improved passenger communication. The customers will also benefit from the expected reduction in the system costs, which may have a positive impact on the ticket price. Train safety will be further improved by establishing shunting operations as fully monitored movements and the implementation of partially automated processes for setting up construction sites. The high capacity of the radio data transmission system allows efficient up-to-date communication for the passengers. Further optimization of energy consumption will be possible with scheduling processes that take power requirements into account and train operation supported by driver assistance systems. R+R supports the smartrail 4.0 program management in the areas of business case planning, life cycle management and sub-project coordination.Client
