Title:
Abstract:	The Koralmbahn railway line between Graz and Klagenfurt is an essential link in the Baltic-Adriatic Corridor. The new high-speed line will create new capacities and significantly better conditions for environmentally friendly goods transport by rail. The current journey times for passengers will be reduced considerably. The Koralm Tunnel with a length of 32.9 km is the most important section of the new Koralmbahn. The article reports on the current state of design, investigation and construction at the Koralm Tunnel and examples of further development are presented. Die Koralmbahn zwischen Graz und Klagenfurt stellt ein maßgebliches Teilstück im Rahmen des Baltisch-Adriatischen Korridors dar. Mit dieser neuen Eisenbahn-Hochleistungsverbindung werden neue Kapazitäten und deutlich verbesserte Voraussetzungen für den umweltfreundlichen Bahngüterverkehr geschaffen. Im Personenverkehr wird die derzeitige Fahrzeit erheblich reduziert. Der Koralmtunnel stellt mit einer Länge von rund 32,9 km das Kernstück der neuen Koralmbahn dar. Im Artikel wird über den aktuellen Stand der Planung, der Erkundung und der baulichen Umsetzung beim Koralmtunnel berichtet, und es werden projektspezifische Weiterentwicklungen exemplarisch vorgestellt.
