RESUMEN: La construcción de los túneles aliviadores del Emisario Principal del Arroyo Maldonado es la obra más importante encarada por el Gobierno de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires, siendo un elemento fundamental del Plan Director Hidráulico. Consta de 2 túneles de 6,90 m de diámetro interno, de 4,5 km y 10 km de longitud, excavados con dos máquinas tuneleras TBM utilizando procedimientos EPB, cámaras de descarga y conexión y pozos de acceso. Se describen en este trabajo las características fundamentales del proyecto, explicitando los métodos constructivos, adoptados en función de las características geotécnicas, las condiciones existentes edilicias, las interferencias y el impacto ambiental.
