About the project

The Swiss Federal Roads Office ASTRA is building a second tube through the Gotthard so the north-south axis stays open while the existing tube is refurbished. 16.9 kilometres long, 12.3 metres in diameter, 7.4 million tonnes of excavated rock — driven from the portals at Göschenen and Airolo over a ten-year build, at a project cost of CHF 2.14 billion. Breakthrough is planned for 2027 and opening for 2030; from 2033 both tubes are in service. Capacity does not increase — one lane stays open in each direction.
Document your project
Tunnel, building or site — Arclap documents and secures your project with a system that is live the same day. Planned, installed and looked after by us.
- Unbroken image documentation from the first excavation
- Live access for owners, site managers and partners
- AI timelapse for communication and reports
- 24/7 site security, optionally with an alarm centre
The right setup for a project like this
A multi-year tunnel project with portals, installation areas and access roads without mains power calls for systems that run autonomously for years — this is how we would equip a project of this kind:
Sector:Infrastructure & Civil
The result
A single continuous archive across the whole project period — live views for every zone, and timestamped records that authorities and partners can rely on.
