Volvo L120 Electric Wheel Loader Goes Underground in Munich
Building a second S-Bahn core route 44 meters below street level is a huge endeavor. ARGE Marienhof, a joint venture between Implenia and Hochtief, is building the new Marienhof station for Deutsche Bahn. Right behind the town hall in central Munich, the project also involves a connection tunnel to the existing underground railway at Marienplatz, which requires tunnelling under compressed air to prevent groundwater ingress. The electric operation of the L120 Electric wheel loader from Volvo Construction Equipment (Volvo CE) is a major advantage in this ambitious infrastructure project.
