Photo: DPAMunich's mayor on Wednesday is set to cut the turf on the building site of a second train tunnel through the inner city. It'll turn the city centre into a building site for a decade - but is it worth it? And it certainly has the potential to be true in terms of messing up a huge public infrastructure project. If this breaks down, hundreds of thousands of commuters who travel daily between the suburbs and the city centre would be stuck. The proposed alternative was to direct the S-Bahn traffic through an overground ring, much like Berlin’s Ringbahn, which encircles the city centre.
