New maintenance infrastructure on approx. 41,000 m² for more than 100 ÖBB double-deck multiple unit trains at the former Wien Floridsdorf freight station.
As part of the “S-Bahn Wien Upgrade” project and the procurement project “Cityjet Doppelstock Neu” (“DOSTO Neu”) of ÖBB-Personenverkehr AG, new maintenance infrastructure for more than 100 double-deck multiple unit trains was built at the former Wien Floridsdorf freight station. The four-, five- and six-car trains, with vehicle lengths of 110 and 160 metres respectively, were intended primarily for service on Vienna’s main line.
The approx. 41,000 m² construction site accommodated a maintenance hall with approx. 13,000 m² of built-up area, an operations building with approx. 2,000 m² of built-up area and 4,000 m² of usable floor space, as well as an unheated hall with storage area. The extensive track infrastructure, approx. 1,000 metres in length, comprised seven access and hall tracks, an unloading track, eight single turnouts and a double-slip turnout.
Building construction, track works and building services ran in parallel – our task was to coordinate these interfaces safely on site.
FCP was commissioned with construction site coordination in accordance with the Austrian Construction Workers Coordination Act (BauKG), site supervision for construction, electrical engineering and HVAC, as well as overall coordination.
As the north-west main district heating transmission line of Wiener Netze crossed the site, FCP additionally carried out a preservation of evidence survey and vibration monitoring in accordance with ÖNORM S 9020 to protect it. In addition, the construction works were monitored for noise and vibration at the nearest residential neighbours.
