SBB: Schaerer and partners organize breakthrough ceremony
Schaerer and Partner Lenzburg will design and organize the event celebrating the breakthrough of the Weinberg Tunnel in Zurich. A total of four agencies submitted proposals in response to the SBB’s call for bids. The concept presented by the communications and event specialists was the one that won the contract.
The Weinberg Tunnel, one of the largest construction sites in Switzerland, forms the heart of the so-called Altstetten-Zurich HB-Oerlikon cross-city link, which will serve to increase capacity and make the change of direction in the terminus station superfluous for some destinations. For construction reasons, the exact time of the breakthrough cannot yet be determined - "a fact that the flexible team from Lenzburg has accepted as an exciting challenge", the agency wrote in a press release on Tuesday.
Responsible at the Swiss Federal Railways SBB: Roland Kobel (overall project manager for the cross-city link), Marco Ceriani (section manager for the Weinberg Tunnel). Responsible at Schaerer and Partner: Andi Schaerer, Marco Canonica (overall management).
