In March, a new large-scale project for SPITZKE starts in North Rhine-Westphalia. The ambitious railway project Rhine-Ruhr-Express, which is being built until 2030, will reorganise the railway network between Cologne and Dortmund. The main goal is more direct connections every 15 minutes between the two major cities for millions of passengers. The current infrastructure is not sufficient to increase capacities and overcome bottlenecks, e.g. because long-distance and regional trains still use the same tracks.
Hundreds of thousands of commuters and travellers use the railway every day in the Rhine-Ruhr metropolitan region. The RRX is intended to replace the current regional traffic, which runs on single lines every hour, and provide a networked interval of 15 minutes. SPITZKE’s Equipment/Electrical Engineering Division is responsible for the overhead contact line systems in the railway project Rhine-Ruhr-Express, which is part of the 2030 Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan.
The work in the section 1.2 between Leverkusen-Chempark and Leverkusen-Küppersteg and the section 1.3 between Leverkusen-Rheindorf and Langenfeld-Berghausen is coordinated by SPITZKE’s western regional headquarters.
