Image description

After the founding of the Swiss Society for the Construction of the Road Tunnel on the Great St Bernard, the present persons travelled from Martigny, Switzerland, to the Italian side of the mountain pass, where tunneling work has already begun. The image shows the bridge for the construction work with the tunnel portal on the Italian side. The Great St Bernard Tunnel can be found on the north-south axis and connects Martigny in the canton of Valais, Switzerland, with the North-Italian city Aosta set in the eponymous valley. The tunnel is 5.8 kilometers long. Construction work for the first transalpine road tunnel started in 1958 and was concluded in March 1964
