With experience developing some of the world's most complex tunneling projects, the ARCADIS team of engineers, geologists and geotechnicians leads the way in tunnel design, site selection, cost estimating, surveying, and program/construction management.
Our technical expertise in underground infrastructure includes all major tunnel designs and methods, including:
- Cut-and-cover
- Immersed-tube
- Bored and mined
- Microtunneling
- Pipe jacking
- Trenchless technology
The ARCADIS tunnel-type selection process carefully considers functional requirements, geometric configurations, ground conditions, site accessibility, aboveground crossings, and environmental and sustainability requirements.
Our project experience encompasses all major types of tunnels including expertise in the following areas:
- Transit
- Transportation
- Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO)
- Water storage
Because of our experience and reputation in tunnel engineering, we perform tunnel design reviews, environmental studies and safety surveys that reduce transportation risks, optimize safety and promote constructability. With our global network of tunnel professionals, we have experience with every type of tunnel project delivery method including Design-Build, Design-Bid-Build and Design-Build-Operate methodologies as well as the European model, Design-Build-Finance-Maintenance.
