Der Strengen-Tunnel ist ein doppel-röhriger Autobahntunnel und ist Teil der S16 Arlberg Schnellstraße. Er ist die Erweiterung der S16 als zweiröhriger Tunnel und auch eine Umfahrung von dem Ort Stregen. Der Tunnel ist 5,8 km lang und hat zwischen den Röhren 11 Querschläge. Der Tunnel wurde 2000 bis 2006 gebaut und wurde nach den letzten Vorschriften saniert. ecoexperts unterstützte die Firma DPB GmbH bei der Detailplanung, der Leittechhnik und bei der Inbetriebnahme.

Technical Data / Scope

• Engineering, Programmierung, Installation, Inbetriebnahme
• mehr als 50.000 Datenpunkte
• 2 Operator Clients
• 14 redundante Steuerungen
• 62 ERT Stations
• mehr als 130 Verkehrszeichen (WVZ,etc)
• TLS Protokoll zur VMIS (Traffic Management System)

Sanierung unter Verkehr
Um die Sicherheit im Tunnel zu erhöhen wurde der Tunnel in zwei Phasen saniert. Nach der Sanierung der ersten Röhre wurde der Verkehr durch die sanierte Röhre geführt. Anschließend wurde die zweite Röhre innerhalb kurzer Zeit saniert. Herausforderung war dabei die adaptierung der Steuerung, da Teile wie die Mittelspannungsanlage nicht röhren-getrennt ausgeführt waren.

System Update unter Verkehr ohne Shutdown
Da ständig eine Röhre unter Verkehr war, musste die Sanierung des SCADA-Systems ohne Shutdown verfügbar bleiben. Ebenso wurden Test und Inbetriebnahme parallel zum Verkehr durchgeführt.

Fahrsteifensignalisierung mit LED-Wechselverkehrszeichen
Es wurden mehr als 100 Fahrstreifensignalisierungen in LED-WVZ Technik im Tunnel installiert. Diese wurden mit einer BUS-Anbindung an das Leitsystem gekoppelt und werden mit den Verkaufsprogrammen automatisch geschalten.

Hard- und Softwareupgrade der bestehenden Steuerungen
Hoche Anforderungene an Sicherheit und Flexibilität wurde durch ein upgrade der bestehenden Hard- und Software gelöst. Als Softwarelösung wurde aX4.x verwendet.

Haberberg, Kollmann and Donnersberg tunnel are part of the A02 motorway in Carinthia. These tunnels are after the refurbished according to the latest technical safety regulations. The refurbishment of thetunnels are divided into two phases in 2018. With this renewal will also installed the AKUT (acoustic warning system) system in the Kollmann tunnel. ecoexperts delivers control system for the company DPB and Strabag.

Functional scope

• engineering, constuction, installation of the tunnel control system for tunnel Kollmann, Haberberg and Donnersberg
• FAT and SAT
• more than 30.000 data points
• 2 operator client workstations
• 62 managed network switches
• 7 redundant hot-standby PLC‘s
• 12 standalone PLC‘s
• 68 Modbus clients
• 25 interfaceconverters with different communication protocols (TLS, OPCUa, Modbus, etc.)
• 17 touchpanels

In order to increase the safety in the tunnel, the tunnel will be renovated in two phases. After the renovation of the first tube, traffic will be directed through the renovated tube. The ventilation system in the Donnersberg tunnel is also being renewed. According to the latest standard, the regulation is also carried out with frequency-controlled fans. High demands on security and flexibility are met by the latest SCADA system – acuradeITS. acurade is a WEB-based SCADA technology with multi-vendor support, redundancy functionality, secure data transmission and much more.

The Kienberg tunnel with a length of 1.45 km and the Hungerbichl tunnel with a length of 0.53 km are located on the A9 Phyrn Autobahn, north of the Klaus tunnel chain. Both tunnels consist of two two-lane tunnel tubes that are connected by a valley crossing.

Technical Data / Scope

• Redundant Server
• 17 redundant PLC Control units
• 9 standalone PLC Control units
• more than 100 remote IO-Units concted with ModbusTCP
• Communication to video detection system with IEC 60870-5-104
• Communication to traffic data system with CANOpen
• Connection to CCR (VMZ Ardning) via OPC UA

• Redundant optical fibre network

Project description
The project A09 Phyrn Autobahn Tunnel Kienberg and Tunnel Hungerbichl renovation and adaptation to STSG includes the replacement of the existing control components and the renovation of the electrical system. The electrical equipment runs in several electronics of an operating station and the operating center Kienberg. Several access points are connected to control the free field systems.

The Klaus node was integrated into the tunnel control system with a dirt hopper, a water protection system and several signposts from the state road. Controlling the radar system dynamically adjusts it to the speed in the tunnel.

The fully automatic lighting control for the entrance and passage areas depending on the outside light, the traffic volume and occurring events cover the highest safety standards. In the event of a fire, the tunnel ventilation controls the reliable flue gas discharge to protect the traffic jams.

The special location of the tunnels on the A09, directly between the Klaus tunnel chain and the Inzersdorf-Schön section, required a direct exchange of information between the tunnels. Different technological interfaces were used to implement the higher-level traffic control system over the entire route. Monitoring is carried out centrally by the traffic management center in Ardning.

The UFT St. Andrä is located on the A10 Tauern Autobahn between the ABM Zauchen and the Oswaldibergtunnel. It has a length of 480 meters and consists of 2 structurally separate tubes, each with 2 lanes in one directional lane.

Project description
The control system exchange project for the A10 Tauern Autobahn UFT St. Andrä includes the replacement of the existing control and visualization components and the renovation of the electrical system. The electrical devices run in 2 electronic ones. For the connection of the height control, an access point is connected, which takes over height detection and the switching of the height control lights.

For the regulation of traffic 10 pieces 3begr. Traffic lights where converted to LED technology. The lighting control has been newly implemented and reacts to changes in the outside, inside and entrance luminance. Traffic detection has also been modernized.

When implementing the functions and creating the individual objects, special attention was paid to the planning manual-specific execution specifications for visualization and data communication.
