Description

Description

The Swiss Gotthard Base Tunnel was closed following the derailment of freight carriages on 10 August 2023 which caused extensive damage to the infrastructure. It was then partially reopened to rail traffic at midnight on 22 August 2023. The major clearing and recovery work at the site of the accident in the west tube is expected to last until the end of September 2023. Some 22 wagons and two locomotives have already been removed from the tunnel, leaving 8 wagons still in the tunnel. Several are so badly damaged that they need to be dismantled in the tunnel before removal. SBB is also carrying out a detailed survey of the damage caused. This will allow the restoration of the damaged railway installations to begin immediately after the clearing and repair work is completed, at the end of September 2023.
