The Zoff about the 2nd main route in Munich continues.

There will be a crisis summit on Thursday, September 29th.

Mayor Dieter Reiter (SPD) will not take part in this.

Munich - The state government invites you to a discussion on the second regular route on Thursday afternoon.

In attendance: Prime Minister Markus Söder (CSU), Economics Minister Hubert Aiwanger (free voters), Transport Minister Christian Bernreiter (CSU) and DB CEO Richard Lutz.

Not there: Munich Mayor Dieter Reiter (SPD).

He doesn't want to.

Crisis summit 2. Regular route: Reiter sees no reason to take part in the meeting without documents

"Since the current documents from Deutsche Bahn have still not been made available to us, I don't think it makes sense to take part in the meeting without a technical basis," said the town hall boss on Wednesday.

As soon as the current plans are available, they will be evaluated by the departments and the Munich Transport Company (MVG).

"For me, it's primarily about being able to tell the people in Munich what to expect.

And I will continue to push for the burdens to be kept as low as possible.” At the same time, every effort must be made to move the project forward more quickly.

"We urgently need a reliable offer for the thousands of commuters - that's why I'm still behind the 2nd regular route project."

Crisis summit 2. Main route: Large-scale project is becoming more expensive and should take longer

As reported, the major project will not only be significantly more expensive, but will also be completed much later.

Deutsche Bahn expects a budget of up to 7.8 billion euros.

Bavaria's Transport Minister Christian Bernreiter (CSU) had calculated in July with 7.2 billion euros.

At the time of the groundbreaking in 2017, the tube should only cost 3.8 billion.

At that time it was also assumed that it would be completed in 2028, but it is now said that commissioning could last until 2037.


The reasons given for the immense increase in costs include the construction of an additional exploration/rescue tube, as well as material price increases and simply the longer construction period.

It is also unclear whether the numbers include the planned U9 station at the main station.
