News on construction work

From March 17 to mid-April: Tunnel Construction Preparation between Construction Sites K & B
The construction sites K and B will be connected underground by a tunnel. From mid-March to mid-April, preparatory construction activities will take place. First, the workspaces will be filled and compacted. At the end of March, a smooth and stable surface will be prepared for the drilling work. Finally, by mid-April, drilling in the rock for the foundation piles of the tunnel will take place. These activities may cause noticeable vibrations in the surrounding area for a short period. We are committed to keeping noise disturbances and disruptions to a minimum. Thank you for your understanding.
From March 11: Start of Surface Demolition and Soil Remediation on the West Campus
Starting in March 2025, soil remediation measures will be carried out on the site of the planned West Campus. The site was previously used as a tannery and later as a storage area for oil and fuels. Initial test excavations have not revealed any evidence of contamination. To ensure the safety of all involved, the area of soil with potential contamination will be preemptively removed. The work will be carried out in accordance with regulations, with protective clothing and within a tented area.
The West Campus team is working closely with experts to ensure that the remediation work is conducted professionally. This measure ensures that the site is uncontaminated before construction begins, allowing the campus to be used long-term. The removal of potential contaminants is an important step in preparing the site for the planned West Campus construction.
