The Brenner Tunnel, which connects Austria to Italy, is being built in the Alps and will be the longest railway tunnel in the world, measuring 64 km.

In the Alps, the Brenner tunnel is being constructed, which will connect Austria to Italy and will be an essential part of the trans-European railway corridor. With a length of 64 km, it will become the longest underground railway line in the world. The project manager, Sebastian Reimann, emphasizes the importance of this project as a joint European effort, involving eleven countries and top companies.

Tunneling machines, supplied by the German company Herrenknecht, are essential for the project, having an impressive power of 6,000 horsepower. Herrenknecht, a leader in the field, faces challenges from dumping prices from China, making the use of European companies a necessity to stimulate the local economy. The project represents a significant achievement for European infrastructure.
