Swiss Federal Railways (SBB) has appointed Pöyry, as part of the engineering consortium 4G, for the “Galette – Bâtiment Voyageur” (passenger building) main lot at Lausanne station.
The main lot of this large scale project covers the entire current railway station. The central components are the widening and extension of the platform, expansion of the underpasses and shopping floor below them, the tunnel beneath the historic station building and reconstruction of the building at the southern end of the station.
Pöyry is deploying expertise from across departments including civil engineering, railway engineering and buildings divisions to help implement the large scale project.
The planning work starts in September 2016, execution will start from 2018 and commissioning is envisaged for 2025.
“We are pleased to bring in our cross-disciplinary expertise and contribute to the success of this complex major inner-city project,” said Martin Bachmann, manager of Pöyry’s Buildings Division in Switzerland.
