In the last five years, Geoconsult has designed above ten road tunnels for highways, it means,above 25 km excavation. Besides, we have participated as Supervision in importantinfrastructure works such as bypass highways in cities like Bilbao, Madrid, etc
Road tunnels
SOUTH METROPOLITAN BYPASS IN BILBAO:(Pais Vasco. SPAIN)This infrastructure runs a bypass beltway aroundBilbao city. For this, it was designed seven tunnelswith a big section ((Argalario, Mesperuza, SantaÁgueda, Arraiz, Larraskitu, Arnotegi andSeberetxe), above 20 km excavated.
Some of our pioneer designed works are knownworldwide such as the construction of a hugechamber in Arraiz tunnel, 28 m wide and 100 mlong.

Geoconsult has participated in the main hydraulic projects developed lately in Spain:
Hydraulic tunnels
PRELIMINARY PROJECT OF SORBE – BORNOVA DIVERSION(Guadalajara. SPAIN)Survey of Alternatives andpreliminary project for theconstruction of big diversion tunnels( 9.000 -4.000 m).
INTAKE AND OUTAKE TUNNELS.(Escombreras. Murcia. SPAIN)Design of outfall and headracetunnels, 2.5 km long. Undersea tunnel,by drill and blast
HYDRAULIC TUNNELS. SEGARRA –GARRIGUES CHANNEL(Lérida. SPAIN)Four tunnel design for diverting water. 1, 2.5 y 3 km long.
Geoconsult is also especialized in tunnel exploitation installations:
Tunnel installations
TUNNELS INSTALLATIONS PROJECTS FOR THE NEW ACCESS TO SAN MAMES(Bilbao. SPAIN)
We have designed the exploitationinstallations (electrification, ventilation,lighting, safety, signalling, etc) in fiveartificial tunnels and tunnel in mine for theredesigning of the access to Bilbaothrough San Mamés.
TUNNELS EQUIPMENT ADEQUACY FOR THE ROAD NETWORK IN ASTURIAS(Asturias. SPAIN)(Asturias. SPAIN)The project redesigns the road tunnelinstallations for its adequacy to theminimum safety requirements. It includesnew designs of connection galleries toaccess to emergency vehicles, CRT,ventilation, lighting, protection againstfires, CCTV, safety, etc
INSTALLATIONS ADEQUACY FOR THE SOMOSIERRA TUNNELThe project adecuates the installations and the existing equipment
Geoconsult has carried out the biggest geotechnical surveys campaigns developed in Spain inthe lineal infrastructure works range.
Inspection and tunnel
rehabilitation projects
INSPECTION AND TUNNEL REHABILITATION PROJECT. LINES 1 AND 2. METRO DE MADRID.(Madrid. SPAIN)Inspection to verify the structuraland functional status of the oldestlines in Metro de Madrid (Lines 1and 2).With the data obtained by theinspection, it was carried out aproject of structural support andtunnels improvements
INSPECTION AND TUNNEL REHABILITATION PROJECTS FOR BASQUE RAILWAY NETWORK IN GUIPUZCOA(Guipúzcoa. SPAIN)The project consists of theinspection and drawing-up oftunnels rehabilitation projects forBasque Railway network.To carry out this work, it wasused modern inspectiontechniques with our ownequipments (GPR, Impact-Echo,termography, etc.)
Geoconsult designs projects in huge underground mining exploitations
Mining
“A FRAGUIÑA” MINING EXPLOITATION CHAMBER (Orense. SPAIN)
In O Barco de Valdeorras (Orense), it has beendesigned several underground chambers toexploit shales.Their dimensions are enormous for this type ofmaterial: 60 m high x 30 m wide x 120 m long.
“APARIO” CHAMBER FOR CALCAREOUS AGGREGATES EXPLOITATIONAGGREGATES EXPLOITATION(Vizcaya. SPAIN)
In Lemona, it was developed the project AparioChamber. It is an underground exploitation forcalcareous aggregate. It uses the sublevelsmethod.
MINING PONDS MONITORING. “LAS CRUCES” COPPER MINE (Sevilla. SPAIN)Monitoring by inclinometers, piezometers and surveying.
Geoconsult has carried out the greatest geotechnical surveys campaigns developed in Spain intolinear infrastructure works range.
Geotechnical surveys for linear
