Tunnel Boring Machine at Mississippi River Project

A tunnel boring machine (TBM) rests near the banks of the Mississippi River, staged for the start of a subsurface water main tunnel project. The machine’s circular cutting head and support equipment are visible beside heavy lifting cranes, part of a major infrastructure effort to modernize the city’s underground water distribution system
