• A project requiring advanced technical expertise in a complex environment;
• Contract worth about €80 million.

Worth about €80 million, the contract includes the construction of diaphragm walls and bored piles. Scheduled for completion by 2024, the works will be conducted in a highly complex environment, immediately next to an underground urban motorway and the metro.

A part of the wall will be built at limited height using two compact Hydrofraise® machines, one of which will be equipped with grippers for drilling into very hard ground.
