Expansion of Bern metro station

The Swiss public transport company RBS is building a new metro station with four new tracks below the existing tracks in Bern, Switzerland’s capital. Under contract to Frutiger AG, Kindlimann supplied almost 200 metric tons of longitudinally welded 12-meter-long steel pipes. Rapid service provision was a requirement. Kindlimann supplied the products to the customer in Uetendorf in six phases over a period of six weeks. The pipes were subsequently cut to size at Frutiger, after which they were screwed together using welded cap plates to create 17 meter pipe lengths.
