The high speed train than will destroy the Sagrada Familia

[laurentino7171]

This is really strange

This building is so famous and so cherished in the heart of the inhabitants of Barcelona

I don't understand

Well, it is not strange. You know, "maybe it is inadmissible that the Catalans (from Catalonia) build such a great temple"! The Spanish government will be happy when this temple is distroyed.

What is the geography like? Is it unstable? What construction methods are going to be used in building the tunnel i.e blasting, use of a tunnel boring machine, etc.? Answers to these questions would be key to how the tunnel will affect Sagrada Famillia.

@theblackhand2 A tunnel machine has done the tunnel, it is already finished and trains will pass through it in 2012. Its contruction has been flawless, the part next to the sagrada familia was built since october 2010 and nothing happened. Between the monument and the tunnel there are pylons that protect it, plus the tunnel is pretty deep under the street. Also the terrain is stable

Let your friends know that they are going to build a high speed tunnel 2 meters undeter the basement of the Temple. A madness that can destroy the building!!
