"Question No 63 by Reinhold Messner ():
The project for a new Verona-Munich through railway line has been under discussion for years. Traffic on the Verona-Munich route is increasing, yet only one third of the capacity of the existing railway line is being used. The way to reduce the air and noise pollution caused by long-distance lorries would be to switch all heavy through traffic from road to rail. To achieve this, motorway tolls for goods vehicles must be increased and a fast and efficient railway line must be provided. If a new line is built, care must be taken to select the option that has the least damaging impact on the environment. As the infrastructure is supposed to last for hundreds of years, it is essential to find the best solution. It appears that the Commission favours the Brenner base tunnel project.
Why does the Commission not intend to reconsider the alternative ATT3 project put forward by the engineers Trojer and Kauer? Has the Commission studied the potential environmental impact of the various projects for a Verona-Munich rail link? Can the Commission finance a further study of the question of the transport of goods via the Brenner?"@en1
