More money for Switzerland’s rail infrastructure
The Swiss government has decided to supply CHF 16.4 billion for the operation and renewal of the existing rail network, railway facilities and stations for 2025-2028 - around two billion more than in the current period.
In addition, the legislature wants to provide a loan commitment of CHF 185 million for investments in private freight transport facilities such as terminals and sidings. The Swiss government said that the confederation will support infrastructure projects of private railway companies that will further the safety, capacity utilisation, and efficient use of the rail network.
