Fehmarn Sound crossing, Germany

Today, traffic crossing the Fehmarn Sound uses a combined road and rail bridge. A new fixed connection between Fehmarn and the mainland is intended to meet performance and safety needs arising from future traffic expectations.

Working on planning activities together with ZPP, DB E&C among other things has been commissioned to deliver the preliminary design for the tunnel-based proposal. BIM is used parallel to conventional planning activities.
