Ceneri Base Tunnel

The Ceneri Base Tunnel (CBT) is a railway tunnel under construction in Switzerland's Canton Ticino. It will pass under Monte Ceneri between Camorino in the Magadino Flat and Vezia near Lugano. It is another part of the Swiss AlpTransit initiative NRLA. On completion, the CBT will be an important feeder in the south for the Gotthard Base Tunnel as the existing, proportionally steep track over Monte Ceneri isn't suitable for high speed rail or heavy freight trains.

Located at 46.1192, 8.99083 (Lat. / Lng.), about 1 miles away.
