Underground passage

Versatile solutions for modern infrastructure

Enhance infrastructure and sustainability with our underground passages

Underground passages are critical components in modern infrastructure projects, offering a range of solutions for transportation, environmental protection, and utility management. ViaCon specializes in the design and construction of underground passages that meet the diverse needs of urban development, transportation networks, and ecological sustainability.

Applications of underground passages

Underground passages serve multiple purposes across various sectors. In transportation, they provide safe and efficient routes for pedestrians, cyclists, and vehicles, especially in areas where above-ground crossings are impractical or unsafe. These passages are also vital in facilitating wildlife crossings, helping to preserve natural habitats and reduce roadkill by allowing animals to traverse beneath highways and railroads.

In addition to transportation, underground passages are used in utilities management. They house essential infrastructure such as water pipelines, electrical cables, and communication networks, protecting them from environmental hazards and ensuring reliable service. Moreover, they play a crucial role in urban drainage systems, channeling stormwater away from populated areas to prevent flooding.

Advantages of underground passages

 

Safety and accessibility

Underground passages enhance safety by providing a controlled environment away from traffic and other surface-level hazards. They are designed to be accessible to all users, including those with mobility challenges, ensuring inclusivity in urban design.

Environmental protection

Our tanks help mitigate the environmental impact of stormwater runoff by capturing rainwater before it reaches drainage systems. This not only reduces the risk of flooding but also prevents pollutants from entering natural waterways.

Space efficiency

In densely populated urban areas, space is a valuable resource. Underground passages optimize land use by moving essential infrastructure and transportation routes below ground, freeing up surface space for other developments or green spaces.

Durability and longevity

Constructed with robust materials such as steel or reinforced concrete, underground passages are built to withstand harsh environmental conditions and heavy use. Their long lifespan makes them a cost-effective solution for infrastructure projects.

Our expertise in underground passages

At ViaCon, we bring decades of experience and engineering expertise to the design and construction of underground passages. Our solutions are tailored to meet the specific requirements of each project, whether it’s a pedestrian underpass, a wildlife corridor, or a utility tunnel. We focus on delivering structures that are not only functional but also environmentally sustainable and cost effective.

FAQ’s

This is text that will be here so that it looks nicer. something

How are UltraCor® structures different from other ViaCon bridge solutions?

They are stronger and wider than SuperCor®, Hamco MP200plus®. As opposed to CON/SPAN, they are made of steel and not concrete so they are more ecological and 30-40% more cost-efficient. And unlike Acrow® 700XS®, they are applicable for buried solutions but take a bit longer to install.
