Berlin's Tram Project on Leipziger Straße Faces Delays and Review
Berlin's Transport Senator Manja Schreiner (CDU) has called for a review of the planned tram route on Leipziger Straße. The project aims to enhance public transport and reduce car usage, but alternative routes could significantly delay the project and require a new cost-benefit analysis.
Originally scheduled for completion by 2029, the new tram line between Alexanderplatz and Kulturforum is now under scrutiny. Schreiner wants to investigate alternative routes, which could potentially lengthen the route and push back the project timeline by several years. The initial plans for Leipziger Straße involve reducing lanes for car traffic, aiming to lower air pollution emissions. However, the oppositional Greens suspect that Schreiner's review may be an attempt to deliberately delay the project.
The review of the tram project on Leipziger Straße is set to investigate alternative routes and their potential impact on the project's timeline and cost-effectiveness. The project's original goals of improving public transport and reducing car usage remain unchanged, but the potential delays and additional analysis required may affect the project's progress.
