Milan Metro M1

Italy

Ghella has been awarded the contract for the extension of Milan's M1 metro line, a 3.3 km route featuring three new stations serving the neighborhoods of Baggio, Olmi, and Valsesia.

Specifically, the westward extension of the ‘red’ line will start from the current Bisceglie station turnaround and will be entirely underground. It will include three stations (Parri-Valsesia, Baggio, and Olmi) and six ancillary structures along the route. The tunnel will be constructed almost entirely using an EPB TBM, significantly minimizing surface impacts.

The project includes several innovative solutions, such as cutting-edge fire prevention technologies designed to ensure the highest levels of safety.

The contract was awarded to the temporary consortium formed by Ghella, Consorzio Eteria (comprising Vianini Lavori SpA, Itinera SpA, and I.CO.P. SpA Società Benefit), and C.M.B.
