The renovation work on the Hubertus Tunnel is taking more than two months longer than planned. Strukton (the contractor) has indicated that it will not meet the original opening date of April 30. The municipality considers this unacceptable and has imposed a substantial fine on Strukton for failing to comply with the contract. The contractor expects the Hubertus Tunnel to reopen to traffic in early July 2026.
As a result of the extended closure, several projects need to be rescheduled. The impact and alternatives are currently being worked out.
Diversions
The extended closure also means that traffic must continue to take a detour until the road reopens. The existing closures and associated diversions in the area remain unchanged.
Until then, traffic will remain heavy. Expect delays during rush hour and plan your journey wisely. The Hubertus Tunnel will only be allowed to open to traffic once everything is functioning properly and safely.
