Heijmans to build new Eindhoven station tunnel

ProRail has awarded the contract for the construction of the new Eindhoven
station tunnel to Heijmans. The contract is valued at over EUR 32 million. Work
planning will start immediately, construction will start in the 1st quarter of
2013 and the entire project will be completed by the summer of 2016.

A European tendering process was completed for this contract in which Heijmans
submitted the economically most advantageous tender. The project is
characterised by Heijmans´ integral approach, whereby the work will be carried
out by the Heijmans Civil Engineering and the Heijmans Non-residential Building
business units. The construction of rail-related and building-related technical
installations also forms part of the contract. The station will continue to
operate normally during construction.

New Tunnel
The Eindhoven railway station will be renovated because the current station was
not designed to accommodate future traveller volumes. In addition to the current
8-metre wide tunnel, an additional new 35-metre wide tunnel will therefore be
constructed. The tunnel will also form an important pedestrian link between the
northern and southern sections of the city. Projections call for 115,000
passers-by to make use of the tunnel each day by 2020.

Excellent Facilities
A key component of the renovation is the improved access to the station for
disabled persons. The new underground passage will be equipped with lifts and
escalators to all platforms so that people with impaired mobility, for example,
can independently travel by train. In addition, space has been reserved in the
passage for high-quality shops and catering facilities.

The widening of the station tunnel is a partnership between ProRail, NS Stations
and the Municipality of Eindhoven with co-financing from the central government
and the Province of Noord-Brabant. Rail infrastructure manager ProRail, together
with Heijmans, is responsible for the execution.
