Germany updates: Railroad operator seeks modernization delay DW 07/10/2025
Briefly

Deutsche Bahn, Germany's state-owned railway operator, plans to postpone modernization projects for key routes until 2036, extending the timeline beyond previous estimates. The refurbishment of over 40 frequently used railroad lines across the country will now take at least five years longer than originally intended. Additionally, Volkswagen has ceased deliveries of its ID.Buzz electric vans to the US, primarily due to US tariffs. Border control measures introduced by Germany have also increased police workload and stress levels, prompting calls for solutions to improve working conditions.
