Also it is really ridiculous because it goes straight through a rather central part of the city, removing old construction and very close to where a lot of people live in an attractive part of the city.
Instead they could build it a couple kilometers further out to still connect the ring, the distance in drive time would probably be less than 5 minutes.
But they stick to stupid plans they made 10 years ago like they always do in this city.
The city doesn't want it, the federal government is pushing for it. Probably because the person in charge is a free market theologist from FDP so he wants to spend as much tax money as possible to have as little impact as possible. Wait, that doesn't make a lot of sense, but it's what's happening.
