[Prague] Outer Ring - Page 4

How many tunnels are U/C now? I have a feeling that Prague is building like 10 tunnels at once

kokpit · December 16th, 2007, 03:09 PM

^ on outer ring there are two u/c - Lahovice tunnel (1660m) and Komořany tunnel (1940m). On inner ring there is one u/c - tunel Blanka (3440m). Some others are planned so in a few years we can have more tunnels u/c at once.

tunel Blanka (3440m)

Ugrhrrr!!!

Actually Blanka tunnel is ca 5,5 km long (northern tube 5502 m, southern tube 5489 m; source). Similarly Mrázovka tunnel is ca 1,26 km long (access/exit tunnel ramps on mid-tunnel junction not included) and not 1004 m as stated in several posts here on SSC made by some careless posters who don't verify or read their sources properly (the 1004 m figure is in fact the length of the bored part of the western tube of Mrázovka tunnel).

Except for the length of Blanka tunnels, kokpit's answer is right, there are "only" 3 long highway tunnels (+1 short) u/c in Prague now. Their combined length is over 9 km.

Beside these, two 2-track railway tunnels, ca 1,2 km each, are u/c too and a 4,6 km long underground extension of metro C.

Well, yes, but not all of these 5,5 km are u/c. There will be three tunnels on this section in total and one will follow another so their length depends how you divide them. Nowadays, there's only one tunnel of these u/c and it's length is 3438 m, see the source.

It is expected to be opened in May 2010, but it must be opened together with part 512, which is still not U/C. But we still hope for 2010

There are new shots of Prague's Outer Ring part 514 here, posted by Karel Smejkal.

BTW I suggest to close both Prague rings threads and continue in Czech motorways, because the number of posts is... low.

Herzarsen · February 12th, 2008, 03:58 PM

I dont agree. Its nice to seperate them.

The problem with all of our threads is that there is lack of posts since other then Kokpit most no one else posts anything. For example for Prague, with the same reasoning, we should only keep Prague Projects thread instead of the others specific Project threads since there is very few posts and not much photo updates.

Thats not the same... Prague = a lot of projects. Lets keep them separated since they're not related (except the location..).

Czech motorways = all roads, highways, expressways... Outer Ring is also an expressway, it's a part of the whole network. They're related closely.

kokpit · February 12th, 2008, 07:41 PM

^ I agree with Herzarsen, I would keep it as it is now, we don't need vast threads containg wide-ranging projects with lots of pages, specialized threads are better for me.

kokpit · February 17th, 2008, 02:53 PM

few updates from southern part

.

rimorski · February 17th, 2008, 11:22 PM

Real construction boom.

pt82 · February 17th, 2008, 11:50 PM

i guess they have so much money, they can build whatever they want.
even those "fake tunnels" - environmental friendly i say

these fake tunnels turn to real tunnels only few meters further, without them there would be deep groove, and it's ecological of course

rimorski · February 18th, 2008, 08:34 PM

I see, it really is more ecological!
