Surveillance measurement and preservation of evidence Schwamendingen enclosure

The Schwamendingen enclosure is a road traffic project in Zurich that was realised over several years until 2024. The enclosure included the encasement of the A1 motorway in Zurich over a length of 940 metres with a directionally separated tunnel between the Aubrugg motorway junction and the existing Schöneich tunnel. The enclosure extended the Schöneich Tunnel to a total of 1.7 kilometres.
In the engineering consortium with Amberg Technologies, we were responsible for the preservation of evidence and building monitoring across the entire construction site of the new Schwamendingen enclosure. Our task was to ensure the Safety and Security of the adjacent buildings and structures through precise measurements and monitoring and to minimize the impact of the construction work.
