Semmering-Basistunnel (Semmeringbasistunnel), Mürzzuschlag, Bezirk Bruck-Mürzzuschlag, Steiermark, Österreich


Railroad tunnel between Mürzzuschlag (Styria) and Gloggnitz (Lower Austria), under construction since 2012 and scheduled to be finished in 2027.
There are two tunnel sections on the Styrian side: „Tunnelabschnitt Grautschenhof“ and „Tunnelabschnitt Fröschnitzgraben“.

The material excavated on the Styrian side is dumped in a nearby small valley ('Deponie Longsgraben' and 'Deponie Fröschnitzgraben') while the (geologically different) material excavated on the Lower Austrian side was first used to fill up the abandoned Schlossberg quarry near Gloggnitz, and was later dumped in an abandoned gravel pit near Strasshof an der Nordbahn (near Vienna).
