  • Contract comprises track construction as well as civil engineering structures
  • Completion in 2018
  • Contract value approx. € 66 million

Vienna, 4 May 2016 Two German subsidiaries of publicly listed technology group STRABAG SE have been awarded Contract Section South by Deutsche Bahn AG to upgrade approx. 30 km of the Berlin-Dresden railway line. The consortium of STRABAG Rail GmbH, Berlin, and STRABAG AG, Cologne, will perform track works and build new overpasses. Construction is scheduled for completion by the end of 2018. The contract has a value of about € 66 million.

STRABAG Rail GmbH will lay new tracks on the Berlin-Dresden rail line along a length of 27 km between Hohenleipisch and Walddrehna and perform maintenance works on the existing tracks along a length of 26 km. Construction site preparations are scheduled to begin on

1 June 2016. The site will be closed to traffic and actual track works will begin on 5 August 2016. At the same time, STRABAG Rail will build seven railway overpasses and STRABAG AG eight road overpasses. The line is slated for reopening on 9 December 2017. The civil engineering structures forming part of the contract are to be completed by the end of 2018. "The challenging part of this project will be keeping track closures as brief as possible in order to minimise the impact on passengers," says Thomas Birtel, CEO of

STRABAG SE.
