Swiss underground freight rail project CST advances to audition phase
The Cargo Sous Terrain (CST) project, a Swiss initiative for an underground freight-dedicated rail network, is advancing into a new phase with the commencement of an audition period. The Swiss Federal Offices of Transport and Territorial Development have initiated this period, inviting involved parties to submit their perspectives on the project. Commencing on February 1, the Swiss cantons through which CST’s initial section is planned, namely Bern, Solothurn, Aargau, and Zürich, have the opportunity to voice their opinions. The auditions, organized by the cantons, will involve towns and the public and are scheduled to begin on March 1, continuing until mid-March.
