PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND CHARACTERISTICS
the railway crossing no.46 (PN 46) at the northern exit of the town of Sallanches, at the intersection of secondary road RD1205 (ex RN 205) and the railway line that connects La Roche sur Foron to Saint-Gervais les Bains. It is one of the 400 concerning PNs, identified by the Ministry of Infrastructure, RFF and SNCF, at the national level. In the chosen solution, the RD 1205 is slightly deflected and passes under the railway by a hopper and a lower passing way and joins the South roundabout. The structure is 225m long and about 15m wide. Because the groundwater level is located at a shallow depth and the permeability of the ground is high (gravelly alluvial deposits in Arve), the structure requires the use of a temporary sheet pilling support combined with a hydraulic plug at the bottom of the excavation. The final structure is a concrete open trench with a rail bridge in the middle.
