DB to develop high-performance network to reduce congestion
The programme will upgrade the core network by bundling all work needed on a single line into one work package.
THE German federal government and German Rail (DB) have announced plans for a high-performance network, which will reduce the disruption on core parts of the network across the country caused by obsolete equipment.
The plans, unveiled by federal transport minister, Dr Volker Wissing, and DB CEO, Dr Richard Lutz, in Berlin on June 22, come after Lutz called for “a paradigm shift” in the quality and capacity of Germany’s rail network, stating that its renewal will be a key task over the coming years.
