Germans' Anti-Stuttgart 21 Protests May Pay Off, 2 Years Later
The country reconsiders a massive rail project.
Well that might have been much ado about nothing.
After two years of protests, the German government is reconsidering its Stuttgart 21 rail project. When it was announced in 2010, Germans hoped to create a high-speed rail link between the Baden-Württemburg capital city and Ulm. Tracks were to be moved underground, creating entirely new neighborhoods.
