Why is the construction work for the second trunk line taking so long? Will there be an express line to the airport? And does he sometimes annoy himself as a passenger? A conversation with Heiko Büttner, head of the Munich S-Bahn.
Heiko Büttner, 55, has been head of the Munich S-Bahn since the beginning of 2017. At that time, the law graduate started with the task of modernizing the busy and fault-prone S-Bahn system. In an interview with the SZ, Büttner explains why it’s not that easy. He himself rides the S-Bahn every day and, like many commuters, has to get annoyed almost every day.
