Image description

On 11 December 1977, tunnel workers in the Furka tunnel showed side struts being pushed into the tunnel by the rock pressure. This is one reason for the delays in construction, which means that the tunnel will cost 80 million francs more than planned. The Furka tunnel is 15.4 km away from Oberwald in the canton of Valais and Realp.
