The S2IP consortium including Setec, Systra, Italferr and Pini Swiss Engineers has been selected for a civil engineering project management contract for a section of the future rail tunnel link between Lyon and Turin. Tunnel Euralpin Lyon-Turin (TELT), the Franco-Italian company delivering the Lyon-Turin project, has awarded the S2IP consortium the civil engineering project management of the access tunnels between Saint-Martin-La-Porte and La Praz in the French Alps (Lot 2 of the project).
The S2IP consortium will be responsible for project managing of two single-track parallel tunnels, which are 22.1 km in length.
The 57.5 km Lyon-Turin tunnel, scheduled to open in 2030, will link the international stations of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne and Suse. It will reduce the journey time between Lyon and Turin from three hours and 43 minutes to under 1 hour and 47 minutes.
