 WARNOW (FLUSS)
Bei Groß Görnow, wo sie das Wasser der Mildenitz aufnimmt, durchbricht die Warnow als fast wild tosender Fluss in einem bis zu 40 m tiefen Durchbruchstal eine eiszeitliche Moräne mit leicht hügliger Landschaft.
Danach erreicht die Warnow, deren Einzugsgebiet 3.324 km² umfasst, den Rostocker Stadtteil Warnemünde, wo sie in die Ostsee mündet.
Dies bedeutet, dass die nur kurzen Bäche und Gräben, die auf der südlichen Seite des Höhenzugs zwischen Grebbin und Parchim entspringen, über die Elde und Elbe in die Nordsee fließen, während die Warnow als Strom auf direktem Weg die Ostsee ansteuert.

 Warnow Tunnel   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Warnow Tunnel (also known as the Warnow River Crossing and the Warnowquerung in German) is a 790m long road tunnel which connects the east and west bank of the Warnow river in the Hanseatic city of Rostock in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Germany.
The tunnel was built using a technique known as Immersed Tube Construction: the main part of the tunnel consists of six prefabricated concrete conduits which were formed and poured in a temporary drydock nearby, floated out into the river and lowered into a dredged channel in the river bottom.
This is a technique apparently pioneered in the Detroit River in construction of the Detroit-Windsor Tunnel in 1930, and replicated for sub-aqueous tunnels ever since.

 TRn: German toll tunnel opens with 60% traffic deficit   (Site not responding. Last check: )
The Warnow crossing - Warnowquerung in German - is an extension of the A19 motorway (autobahn) which terminates in the port located in the northern part of Rostock (area pop 500k) on the east bank of the tidal Warnow River.
Another issue for the tunnel tollsters is a planned western peripheral route, a new link between exit 14 of the A20 at Wismar-Lubeck to the B103 at Schutower-Kreuz (see dotted segment in map.) This would provide complete a 4-sided belt route around Rostock.

To achieve delimi - tation of the dock in the direction of the tunnel to the south, the quay extension was widened after about 40 m in western direction by 26 m.
For the anchorage of the sheet piling intended for the quay wall, the contractor had to ensure that the tunnel slab of the nearby Warnow tunnel was not put in jeopardy as a result of vibrations caused by heavy hammering operations.
In order not to jeopardize the tunnel slab of the adjacent Warnow tunnel due to vibrations caused by hammering operations, soil exchange drills along the entire sheet piling axis were carried out prior to the driving of the sheet piles.

The Ted Williams Tunnel is the tunnel connecting South Boston with Boston's Logan International Airport.
Ordinarily, this tunnel is only used to carry traffic out of the city and with the completion of the Big Dig it only collects traffic from I-93 southbound (right after traffic merges from Storrow Drive) and downtown Boston.
The tunnel originally carried traffic in both directions but with the opening of parallel Callahan Tunnel in 1961, the Sumner was restricted to just southbound traffic; northbound traffic flow normally uses the Callahan Tunnel.

 Financial Review: Rates, $A hit MIG   (Site not responding. Last check: )
MIG noted it completed or progressed construction on new projects worth $5.8 billion, including the M6 toll in the United Kingdom, Warnow Tunnel in Germany and the Westlink M7 in Sydney.
Negative impacts during the period, in addition to the macro-economic impact, included disappointing traffic on the Warnow Tunnel which resulted in MIG's investment being revalued to zero and the recent increase in corporate income tax in Ontario, Canada, which reduced MIG's valuation of its investment in the 407ETR.
MIG said it would remain focused on driving value from its existing portfolio of assets and will continue to deliver on initiatives underway with a view to producing future growth and enhanced returns for security holders.

 Print Article: MIG wipes off tunnel, total loss of $386m
Higher interest rates and the rise in the Australian dollar left Macquarie Infrastructure Group with a December 31 half-year net loss of $386.3 million, a reversal from the $498.8 million earned in the same half last year.
The toll road owner reported a patchy performance across its global road network, deciding to write off entirely its $164 million investment in the Warnow tunnel in Germany following poor traffic levels as well as cutting the value of toll road 407 in Canada.
While the Warnow tunnel has been open only for a few months, the poor level of traffic prompted a write-off of the full investment as work continues to build up traffic volumes.

Given the parameters in force at the European level, the operator model is restricted at present to: bridges, tunnels, and mountain passes along federal motorways and federal highways; multi-lane federal highways with separate carriageways for the two directions of traffic (motorway-like - dual-carriageway - federal highways).
The number of projects (in particular the construction of bridges and tunnels), which can be carried out under the Act, is limited in view of the fact that only certain projects are suitable for private funding on the basis of recouping costs by levying tolls.
In the case of the second project — the crossing of the Trave in Lübeck — a tunnel is planned to replace the Herrenbrücke on the B 104.
