Railway junction Genoa
Italy
Doka realised a large, 129 m long tunnel connecting the train stations of Genoa Brignole and Genoa Piazza Principe. As the connecting tunnel includes sections with four different cross-sections, use of easily adapted formwork was an absolute must. For this reason Top 50 and SL1 were selected.
