EP 75 West Railway-A Circular Economy Success Story

Anna Tuominen is a Project Engineer at Welado joins the conversation together with Alain Anthony Mardo, a Project Director at ORIS to tell us about Finland’s most progressive infrastructure project. The West Railway is approximately 100 km long and partly double track railway link between the Helsinki metropolitan area and Turku, another big city in Western Finland. Both Alain and Anna worked closely as project partners to find innovative ways to manage waste and optimize resources making West Railway the first infrastructure project of its kind in Finland to design sustainability outcomes using a circular economy model. The design phase has now been approved and is about to commence construction. Join the conversation to find out how they collaborated on the design principles using digitalization as an enabler to meet this important milestone.
