Client: Federal Roads Office FEDRO Winterthur branch
Phases: Detailed project, submission, realization and commissioning
Duration: 2023-2026
In order to adapt highway drainage to the latest state of the art, the Federal Roads Office FEDRO is planning the construction of a total of 8 new road wastewater treatment plants (RWWTP) along the N01 and N07 in the border area between the cantons of Zurich and Thurgau. The SABA Kefikerbach in Kefikon ZH is one of these SABAs, which is to be the first to be realized. As part of the detailed project, PV Umwelt evaluated the requirements from the planning approval procedure (PGV), carried out in-depth environmental clarifications and optimized the project in terms of its environmental impact. With regard to the construction work, PV Umwelt planned the necessary measures to protect the environment and prepared various documents, such as a soil protection concept, an accompanying landscape conservation plan and a waste and materials management concept.
Project processing by evaluating the project dossier, comments from the planning approval decision (PGV), identification of open environmental issues and necessary environmental clarifications
Planning and implementation of soil sampling and pollutant investigations at deconstruction sites
Planning and carrying out an inspection with the responsible fisheries inspector, clarification of requirements for construction work on/in the watercourse
Updating and specification of project-integrated environmental measures in collaboration with the FEDRO technical support team
Development of a soil protection concept and an accompanying landscape conservation plan for the planned seeding, planting and maintenance of the green spaces
Development of a waste and material management concept with the planned recycling and disposal routes
Challenges
The project is located in the immediate vicinity and partly affects protected habitats such as hedges / riparian woodland and a trout spawning ground
Scheduling of construction work taking into account relevant closed seasons (bird breeding, spawning season, etc.)
Relevant soil work with excess topsoil and subsoil, search for recycling opportunities within and outside the project
Logistical requirements and functional dependencies on the construction work, taking into account the local conditions
Our solutions
Early involvement and site inspections with cantonal authorities such as the fisheries inspector to clarify technical issues relating to the construction work on and in the watercourse
Close and supportive cooperation in an interdisciplinary project team with specialists from various consulting firms (drainage planning, operating and safety systems (BSA), etc.) and the client
Holistic view and consideration of all environmental aspects as early as the project planning stage
