Construction Schedule and Impact

How will vibrations be managed during construction? What will be the vibration impact from the tunnel construction? Is there a concern about vibrations from the tunnel boring machine (TBM) damaging nearby buildings? Will the vibrations impact my foundatio

In general, the depth of the tunnel and construction method in rock mean that vibration would not be noticeable at the surface. For construction of the shafts, ALCOSAN and its designers will include specific requirements in the contract documents to prevent vibratory impacts to existing structures as well as monitor ground movement and vibration.
