1 The Follo Line Project LONGEST. URBAN. COMPLEX. FASTER. 2015/3 Norwegian National Rail Administration THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT 1
2 2 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT
3 The project The Follo Line Project is currently the largest infrastructure project in Norway and will include the longest railway tunnel in the Nordic countries. The new double track rail line forms the core part of the InterCity development southwards from the capital. The Follo Line tunnel will be Norway s first long twin tube rail tunnel and one of the first to be constructed using tunnel boring machines. The project includes: new double track line between Oslo Central Station and the public transport hub at Ski 20 km long twin rail tunnel extensive work at Oslo Central Station construction of a new station at Ski and surface alignment necessary realignment of the existing Østfold Line, both on the approach to Oslo Central Station (with a new tunnel), and between the new Ski Station and the future tunnel for the Follo Line The main construction work started in 2015, with completion in December Important preparatory work with the alignment of the new line and the construction sites was finalized in 2014/2015. THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT 3
4 4 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT
5 Overview Efficient and forward-looking The Follo Line Project in total will comprise around 64 km of new railway tracks. The new double track line from Oslo to Ski will be 22 km long, and designed for speeds up to 250 km/h. The line will make it possible to reduce the journey time between Oslo and Ski by 50 % (from 22 to 11 minutes). The double track line will be an efficient, safe and environmentally-friendly transport system. From a railway engineering perspective, constructing new lines in the densely trafficked metropolitan area around Oslo Central Station is a major challenge. Much of the work will be undertaken without disruption to the daily flow of traffic to and from this busy station. An urban challenge The Follo Line Project comprises four tracks to Oslo Central Station, which is Norway s largest public transport hub. Trains on the new Follo Line will run directly between Oslo and the public transport hub at Ski. In tandem with the Østfold Line, which currently runs between Oslo and Ski, the Follo Line will give improved service to passengers. Growth and the environment The Østfold Line has reached its capacity limit. Simultaneously, a population growth of at least 30 % is anticipated in this region by The Follo Line will link residential and working areas together effectively and contribute to development in the region. A large scale project The Follo Line Project is comprehensive. Several different operations will be undertaken simultaneously, deadlines will need to be met and the project faces exciting challenges in terms of logistics and management. During the construction phase, a large scale project of this nature will affect people, nature and the environment. It is required to cause as little impact as possible. Groundwater and properties that might be affected are closely monitored Thorough planning is essential in order to restrict the negative impact on the surroundings. Furthermore progress and costs must be closely monitored. From road to rail The Follo Line will provide capacity for more freight trains. Around 80 % of land-based transport of heavy goods in and out of the country passes through the county of Østfold. The bulk of this traffic is currently handled by freight vehicles. One freight train can transport the same volume as approximately 24 heavy goods vehicles. THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT 5
6 Challenges and requirements Oslo Central Station: Between Oslo Central Station and the tunnel, construction of the Follo Line must accommodate other rail traffic in and out of Oslo Central Station. The line will be constructed with connections to several platforms. The line will be constructed with connections to several platforms. In addition restrictions concerning the Medieval Park in Oslo must be taken into account, as this is of great archaeological and historical significance. The Directorate for Cultural Heritage in Norway, Oslo Municipality and the Norwegian National Rail Administration have reached a joint solution for conservation measures regarding both the introduction of the new Follo Line and the new tracks for the Østfold Line through an area known as Klypen. This will provide the opportunity to establish a park area almost twice the current size. The tunnel: The tunnel, which will pass beneath the Ekeberg Hill in Oslo, is about to become the longest railway tunnel (20 km) to date in the Nordic countries. Excavation is performed by means of four hard rock shielded tunnel boring machines (TBM). 6 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT
7 This is one of the first railway tunnels in Norway being excavated by TBM, a technology that is otherwise common in the excavation of long tunnels in Europe. The bored section of the tunnel represents 18,5 km. In addition, drill & blast techniques will be utilised for some of the tunnel work. In the northern part of the tunnel section, both the Follo Line and the relocated Østfold Line are located quite close to existing tunnels, caverns and sensitive installations. The excavation will be done partly by careful drill and blast and by drill and split methodology without blasting. Important criteria for the tunnel: impermeable and safe long service life minimum maintenance requirements optimal train handling (to ensure reliable traffic) minimum impact on the local environment during the construction and in operation skills upgrading and development THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT 7
8 8 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT
9 The tunnel will comply with inter-european safety requirements for long tunnels with cross passages approximately every 500 meters to be used as escape routes. The life expectancy of the tunnel will be at least 100 years. TBMs are well suited for the construction of this tunnel due to: the tunnel s length the rock characteristics generally adequate cover/overburden access to a large rigging area suitably located in relation to the tunnel and to the main road system limits the number of cross cut tunnels in populated areas The tunnel will become the first long rail tunnel in Norway with twin tubes to facilitate: access to future operation and maintenance optimal train/traffic handling safety-evacuation TBM technology Drill & blast is the most common method used in tunnel construction in Norway. In the 70s and 80s, tunnel boring machines were also utilised although these were less complex and mainly used to excavate hydro-electric power tunnels. The decision to use TBM paves the way for alliance building, skills upgrading and innovation as both national and international participation take part in this project. Quality and rock conditions Tunnel boring is a system comprising precast impermeable concrete elements installed in a closed ring to ensure protection from rock fall, as well as water and frost. The space behind the concrete elements is filled with cement grout to seal the gap between the rock face and the ring. Production and installation of concrete elements will form part of an industrialised process. This will help ensure a high and consistent quality of components, as well as the actual installation process. From a life cycle perspective, precast concrete elements in a closed ring will require less maintenance than the more traditional form of rock support using bolts and shotcrete. Choosing machinery that is suited to the ground conditions and a crew experienced in operating The decision to use TBMs paves the way for alliancebuilding, skills upgrading and innovation. THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT 9
10 The new Ski station will be built with six tracks and three central platforms, a new pedestrian underpass, a new road bridge, bus terminal and enlarged car park. under similar rock conditions is essential. Extensive knowledge of ground conditions is an important criteria for success. One major construction site The rig area at Åsland, a rural site on the outskirts of Oslo, includes facilities for production of precast concrete segments. From the rig area two TBMs will be working towards Oslo Central Station to be connected to conventionally blasted tunnels in the Ekeberg Hill. A further two TBMs will be working in a southerly direction toward Ski to be connected to a future cut and cover section. The entire TBM tunnel constructions is accessed and supplied via two access tunnels at the rig area. All four TBMs will be launched from assembly caverns now under construction at the bottom of these access tunnels. Together, the access tunnels cater for traffic to and from the main tunnel, as well as removal of excavated material by belt conveyors to the rig area. The tunnels are also important to secure air supply to the main tunnel. The assembly chambers for the TBMs will be reused as future rescue and evacuation facilities. The TBM assembly chambers and the access tunnels will be constructed utilizing drill & blast techniques. Open section and the new Ski Station: The Follo Line will run along a 1.5 km open section south of the tunnel before reaching the public transport hub at Ski. Retaining walls and culverts (concrete tunnels) will be built along this section, and it will be necessary to realign the Østfold Line in order to achieve efficient train operation. Within the station area itself, the new Ski Station is built with six tracks and three central platforms, a new pedestrian underpass, a new road bridge, bus terminal and enlarged car park. Accessibility, efficient transport and integration into the urban landscape are important factors to the Norwegian National Rail Administration. 10 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT

12 Excavated materials a resource During construction of the Follo Line, around million tons of rock spoil will be removed within a period of around years. Contractors are required to reuse excavated material. This will include the use of suitable excavated materials for segment production. From an environmental and social perspective, it is important to achieve the most effective utilisation of resources. A minimum of transport and safe transport of excavated material is necessary in order to minimize the impact on the local environment. From an environmental perspective, it is advantageous if excavated materials can be of use at Åsland, or be transported from this rig area, which has direct access to the E6 European highway. More sustainable transport Trains are the most environmentally friendly mode of transport we have, if we disregard cycling and walking. However, the construction of rail lines burdens the environment. Therefore the Follo Line Project imposes environmental requirements, in accordance to Norwegian laws, regulations and the corporate goals of the Norwegian National Rail Administration. The main requirements are aimed at transport of the excavated material, noise protection during the construction phase and considerations regarding vulnerable species and the groundwater. New contract model The Follo Line project is a pilot project for a new contract model as well as new tunnel excavation methods for Norwegian railway tunnels. The use of EPC contracts, the use of conventional drill and blast in combination with drill and split methodology, and the use of TBMs pave the way for innovation and knowledge upgrading, in addition to alliance building between Norwegian and foreign engineering and construction companies. The contract strategy for the Follo Line Project has been formulated based on the size of the project. The project has five EPC contracts (general contractors) and one Signal contract (frame agreement). EPC is an acronym for engineering, procurement and construction. This is a recognized contracting arrangement within the construction industry, adapted for the Norwegian National Rail Administration by the Follo Line Project. So far the Rail Administration has signed one contract with Società Italiana per Condotte d Acqua S.p.A. for the EPC Tunnel D&B, one contract with Acciona Infraestructuras S.A. and Ghella S.p.A. for the EPC Tunnel TBM and one with Obrascón Huarte Lain S.A. for the EPC Ski. The two EPC contracts for Civil (Oslo C) and Railway Systems (Oslo C) will be signed in 2015/2016. The general contractors have again signed more than 50 contracts with Norwegian co-operators and sub-suppliers and important preparatory works are already executed by local companies. The Norwegian National Rail Administration aims to cultivate the role as developer and leverage the company s railway expertise. Cooperation and competence building is encouraged to benefit the construction of rail lines in the InterCity triangle and further strengthen the Norwegian tunnel-building expertise on the international stage. The Follo Line Project is developed by the Norwegian National Rail Administration under commission from the Ministry of Transport and Communications. 12 THE FOLLO LINE PROJECT
