Swiss Tunnel Congress 2026
In general, the Swiss Tunnelling Society has set itself ambitious goals for the upcoming event and is looking forward to a lively exchange among tunnelling professionals. A matter of particular importance to the organisers is the involvement of young professionals in the tunnelling community, as the future undoubtedly belongs to the younger generation! The congress therefore aims to provide an ideal platform to connect young talents with experienced experts and to lay the foundation for tomorrow’s projects.
The colloquium on 16 June will focus on the latest developments in mechanised tunnelling, microtunnelling and pipe jacking. On 17 June, a wide range of national and international projects will be presented with first-hand insights:
- Mattertal Tunnel

- Lötschberg Base Line, Geneva Underground Station, Subproject Access Tunnel “Lausanne”

A special highlight awaits participants on the excursion day (18 June 2026).
