The situation

A major transport tunnel in Serbia needed an independent view of its design approach and the geological assumptions behind its cost.

What we did

A review of tunnel geometry, excavation, ground support, and geological uncertainty, based on our team's peer-reviewed research.

Result

Recommendations tied to a published benchmark of about EUR 35 million per kilometre (±12 million) for comparable projects.

Attribution — Delivered by ISR's principals and network. The underlying research on geological uncertainty and the financial sustainability of underground projects is peer-reviewed and published.
