Our Services

Tunnel Inspection & Rehabilitation

Inspection and rehabilitation services that improve the safety, functionality and longevity of underground structures.

Overview

We have experts in feasibility, alternatives analysis, condition assessment, inspection, design and construction management for tunnel rehabilitation projects. Our experts include structural engineers, geotechnical engineers, engineering geologists, cost estimators and construction managers who provide responsive, comprehensive solutions to clients’ needs.

A tunnel that is a hundred years old is not a problem to be solved — it is an asset to be understood. We map what is actually there, model what it means, and design a repair that will outlast the next century of service.
