The contract, worth about €80m, requires Vinci to build diaphragm walls and bored piles.
The project is slated to finish by 2024.
It will be built adjacent to an underground urban motorway and the metro.
A portion of the wall will be constructed at a limited height by leveraging two compact Hydrofraise machines, of which one will feature grippers for drilling into hard ground.

In May, Sogea-Satom, a subsidiary of Vinci Construction, was appointed by the Côte d’Ivoire Ministry of Equipment and Road Maintenance to reinstate a stretch of the Coastal Road between Dabou and Grand Lahou.
This road links Ivory Coast’s two main port cities, Abidjan and San Pedro.
The €97m worth project features reinstating 93km of road, broadening the road by over a 10km section ahead of Dabou, and enhancing the drainage and wastewater network to decrease the risk of flooding.
