BDFcivory – digital construction communication in real time

Sihlwaldstrasse renewal

Location Gemeinde Langnau am Albis

The starting point

Renovation of a cul-de-sac with a railway crossing and utility works. During delivery, residents had to be kept informed continuously about the construction sequence, traffic routing and restrictions.

The project at a glance

Sihlwaldstrasse is being comprehensively renovated and the existing infrastructure renewed. In addition to road works, various utility lines are being replaced and adapted. The work is carried out in several construction phases and leads to changing traffic routing and restrictions for residents during delivery.
