Stadtbahn Limmattal
Plans are forming for a light rail line from Farbhof via Schlieren, Spital Limmattal, Bhf. Dietikon, Shopping Center (Tivoli) to Bhf. Killwangen. The proposed line follows existing roads, but will be segregated from these wherever possible. In Schöneggstrasse (Dietikon) street running will be necessary. Currently 27'000 people work within 400m of the stops. This could develop to 50'000 in the forseeable future. The line could be operational by 2015 at the earliest. However, an extension of route 2 from Farbhof to Schlieren on this alignment remains possible at an earlier date. Besides the Farbhof - Schlieren section, Dietikon - Spreitenbach is also a priority. The latter would initially be realised as a branch of the Bremgarten Dietikon railway (BDWM). The total costs of the project are estimated at 500 to 550 million Swiss Franks. 20minuten, NZZ
