Schöneich Tunnel

The Schöneich Tunnel is a motorway tunnel in Switzerland, and forms part of the A1L motorway in the city of Zurich between Zurich Schwamendingen and the Letten Tunnel.[1]

Opened to traffic on 20 August 1980,[2] the tunnel was originally around 750 m (2,460 ft) long.[3] The tunnel was extended as part of the project Einhausung Schwamendingen, by another 940 m (3,080 ft), bringing its length to a total of 1.7 km (1.1 mi).[4][5] This extension was completed in 2024.[6] The tram lines 7 and 9 run in a dedicated tram tunnel below the tunnel.[4]
