Bauunternehmung Diegtertal BUD, N2, Bauhof Niederdiegten, BL - 1969

Autobahnbau N2, Baulos Sissach-Eptingen, Baselland, Schweiz. Showing the access road from the Kantonsstrasse and village, it leads to a new bridge under the Autobahn.

The L shaped site buildings house the kitchen and cantine for the workforce. The accommodation buildings are off to the left of this photo. Frau Franciolli and her staff provided excellent meals for about 300 men 3 times a day!

I lived on-site here 4 nights a week for almost a year, commuting weekly from my flat in Binningen BL.

Eventually I found an apartment in Diepflingen BL, a village in the next valley and from there sometimes cycled to work over the intervening hill range.

St. Peter's Church, dating from the 13th century, overlooks the village.
