history
planning
In the planning phase, the tunnel was in the planning approval section 2.12 of the new line. In 1984 a length of 376 m was planned. In mid-1986, 376 m were planned.
construction
Driving began in October 1986. The tube was driven from north to south. The tunneling work was completed in April 1987.
