Today our Skanska Costain STRABAG joint venture launched the last of 11 tunnelling machines built for the HS2 London Tunnels project. The tunnelling machine (named Karen) started its drive from Old Oak Common station in west London towards Euston – the railway’s terminus.
The launch comes hot on the heels of tunnel boring machine (TBM) Madeline, the first of the two machines being used to excavate the twin-bore tunnel, which was launched in January. TBM Karen will complete the second bore of the 4.5-mile Euston Tunnel which will bring Britain’s fleet of high-speed trains directly in and out of the heart of the capital – improving capacity of the rail network and providing passengers with more reliable and faster journeys.
Our teams have already delivered 8.4 miles of tunnels under London and will now continue working around the clock to complete these final drives.
