| Abstrait: |
The railway link « Schuman Josaphat » is a new link on the Belgian railway network and will connect the European Quarter to Brussels Airport in just 12 minutes instead of 32 minutes today. The link includes a 350 meters long section in the station Brussels-Schuman and a new 1250 meters long tunnel, branching off the existing tunnel under a block of houses. The construction and installation of all necessary equipment of the new Brussels-Schuman station and the Schuman-Josaphat tunnel started in June 2008 and will be accomplished in 2015. This article illustrates the particularities of this construction site and details the civil works for the redevelopment and extension of the Schuman station. |
