3 1 Introduction Conventional Tunnelling in urban areas has become a well established construction concept in urban tunnelling Conventional Tunnelling became mostly used for tunnels where the geometry of cross sections is changing and ground conditions are varying Conventional Tunnelling is generally used in combination with ground reinforcing technologies and groundwater control measures Such technologies determine the geomechanic behavior together with the specific project needs 3/59

59 Conclusions Through ground reinforcing technologies and groud water control measures, conventional tunnelling has expanded its areas of application in the context of difficult ground and dense overbuildings Advanced Risk considerations and increasing safety levels require priority of ground reinforcement before economic project constraints Conventional tunnelling when compared with open cut gives better results in regard to environmental aspects at the same time satisfying sustain ability requirements. With the increasing use of underground infrastructure, conventional tunnelling with ground reinforcement technologies will be increasingly used. 59/59
