SPITZKE is implementing the next major project, after the 4080 and 1733 high-speed lines, for the modernization of the most important rail transport axis in the Federal Republic. On 26 May, the renovation of the Fürth-Würzburg line will mark the start of a project for the railroad infrastructure specialist which is unparalleled in terms of scope and construction time constraints.

In addition, 1,150 m of underground drainage, 25 underground drainage shafts, 260 m of bridge beams, 383 km of grinding rail, the replacement of 42 km of underground drainage filter layer and the construction of 107 km of side walkways and 1,300 m of side-walkway structure will be completed.
The project is being implemented in two construction phases (BA). BA 1 stretches from Würzburg to Neustadt/Aisch and will be implemented during the main construction period from May 26 to August 6. This will be followed by BA 2 from Neustadt/Aisch to Fürth with a projected construction period ending on September 12.
