In high Alpine construction, PORR operates in extreme terrain, at great heights, and under highly changeable climatic conditions – and usually far away from resources such as concrete plants and material depots. From realising ropeways, reservoirs, ski jumps, high mountain roads and snowmaking systems, to the construction of ski slopes or complex engineering structures high up in the mountains – PORR meets all these challenges and masters projects in the alpine landscape with its many years of experience. In doing so, we rely on state-of-the-art logistics solutions.
Extreme construction plots require specific expertise, environmental knowhow when working in protected zones, and good local knowledge, which is fully covered by our on-the-ground presence, highly trained staff and years of expertise. Furthermore, successful project realisation requires the rapidly changing meteorological conditions to be taken into account in high Alpine construction. PORR relies on its own weather app, which provides reliable, hourly information to the construction site, thereby warning of any sudden weather events in a timely manner.
