It's been a little quieter lately, but the "Limone" still hovers like a dark thundercloud over the southern district of Ebersberg. It is the name of the route that Deutsche Bahn has decided on for the northern approach to the Brenner Pass and over which the first freight trains are to roll in the direction of the national border from 2040 onwards. However, since the announcement last summer, many residents of the communities affected have been upset about the election...

The CSU and Freie Wahlern parliamentary groups are calling for changes to Deutsche Bahn's plans for the controversial northern access to the Brenner Pass between Munich and Kiefersfelden.

North of Rosenheim, the Inn should be crossed instead of under, which the DB rejected as too...

In 2025, the Bundestag is expected to be able to make a final decision on Deutsche Bahn's plans for two new feeder tracks towards the Brenner Base Tunnel. If the cost estimate, which is now one and a half years old, is to be retained until then, then the major project will cost at least seven billion euros in the Rosenheim district alone, because in view of the protests in the region, the railway and the federal government have decided...

Quirin Kaiser's confidence is dwindling. Six months ago, the probability that the expansion of the northern access to the Brenner Pass would affect him and his business in the Niclasreuth district of Aßling was 25 percent. But even then he was worried about the property on the other side of the village street, where he actually wants to build his new workshop. Or wanted to build.After the decision in favor of the Limone route, the future of the traditional company...
It takes about seven minutes: from the clubhouse of the Schloss Elkofen golf club near Grafing to hole number twelve. The sun is beating down mercilessly on this late Thursday afternoon in August: it's still a good 32 degrees, and you're looking for clouds in the sky in vain.
