HIF (+) restoration
Excavation work began in mid August.
The old gate (see image above “Quartal 4/2019”) can’t be used any longer.
Also is the entrance to the yellow gate very limited. Transportations must necessarily discussed with the Bauhallenteam.
For tested specimen there is only very limited space left. Projects must plan to dispose old test bodies as soon as possible.
