These funds will be used to promote and accelerate rail-related projects across the region, such as the expansion of regional infrastructure to support local and local-distance travel and further electrification of north German lines. The end goal is to attract more passengers and freight transport to choose environmentally-friendly rail transport. In addition to showcasing the alliance’s investment plan, the MoU focused on three other key points. These were the development of joint measures to make the region’s rail infrastructure more robust and efficient, to accelerate project planning and to improve construction site management in order for trains to continue running during works. source= https://railway-news.com/db-and-germanys-northern-states-form-future-rail-north-alliance/ İlgili Share on Facebook Share Share on TwitterTweet Share on Pinterest Share Share on LinkedIn Share Share on Digg Share Send email Mail
