Sillschlucht–Brenner state border

The line is measured from the OSM west main bore between Sillschlucht and the state border; the mapped Austrian section is about 29.9 km. BBT lists separate package awards: H21 EUR 59.5 million to PORR, H33 EUR 377 million to Strabag and Webuild, H41 EUR 651 million to Implenia, Webuild and CSC, H52 EUR 120 million to Swietelsky, and H53 EUR 959 million to PORR and Marti. The packages contain overlapping tunnel and ancillary works, so the award values are not summed or assigned as the cost of this route lot. The Italian packages are excluded.
