Latest Developments
The arrival of the first tunnel-boring machine at the future site of Solari station marks the end of the excavation work and laying of precast concrete segments in one of two parallel tunnels on the western end of the M4 line.
The machine began its journey on June 15 from Foppa station and took ten days to excavate 294 m towards Solari station for a daily average of 29 m/d.
