At 14 different points along the route, the subsoil is being explored to a depth of around 6.50 meters with the help of so-called pile-driving core soundings: four times in the Ludwigsburg district, six times in the Möglingen district and four times in the Markgröningen district.
Identifying potential subsoil risks and responding to them in planning
A probe with a diameter of 50 to 80 millimetres is rammed into the ground to take soil samples from the subsoil. In this way, important information can be obtained about the soil composition, the strength of the subsoil or the groundwater conditions. This helps to identify potential subsoil risks in good time and react to them in the planning process.
Each sounding will take around two hours. The work will last until Friday, June 13. If necessary, there will be individual additional soundings from Monday, July 7.
During the soundings, short-term noise disturbances are to be expected in the immediate vicinity. The Zweckverband Stadtbahn asks citizens for their understanding.
