Urban transport (urban railway and underground)
Effectively minimising vibrations and noise in urban areas – to improve the quality of the indoor environment and working conditions of residents
Urban transport encompasses urban railway and underground services – and is defined by an axle load of up to 13 metric tons and a maximum speed of 100 km/h. The primary challenge for urban transport is a surrounding area that is sensitive to noise. Getzner has the ideal products and solutions to effectively minimise vibrations and noise in urban areas that are caused by urban railway traffic.
- Highly effective vibration protection
- Reduction of structure-borne noise
- Better quality of life and working conditions for residents
- Greater comfort for passengers
- Protection of roads, track structures and rail vehicles
- Higher track stability
- System remains effective for the entire life cycle of the superstructure

Challenges
Protection against noise and vibration immissions in Vienna's Musikverein building due to the underground railway service
250 trains per track and per day
More emissions in the tunnel caused by the new V train type
„The one-of-a-kind 'Goldener Saal' demanded particularly careful planning, component selection and implementation to satisfy the Musikverein's extremely stringent immission protection requirements.“Dr. Andreas Oberhauser, Superstructure, Head of Department, WIENER LINIEN GmbH & Co KG
