Untertürkheim parking station

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Untertürkheim parking area is a parking area planned as part of the Stuttgart 21 project in Untertürkheim . The facility is intended to replace the existing parking station at Rosensteinpark , which is located in front of the main station and is to be decommissioned as part of the project.

The two kilometer long freight yard is to be converted into a storage yard . On the 135,000 square meter (according to other information 17 hectare) site, 17.6 km of new tracks were to be built and 180 trains were to be handled daily (as of 2013).

A planning approval procedure for the parking station that was initiated in 2004 was canceled at the end of 2014 and a new procedure was initiated. A new application for planning approval was submitted on April 7, 2017. The plan approval documents are being revised (status: May 2018). Deutsche Bahn expects the planning approval decision in the 3rd quarter of 2019. The contracting out of the construction work for the parking station is planned for the 1st quarter of 2020 (as of May 2018).

Planned facility

The parking station is to be built on this site. Recorded in December 2013
Location in the future network

The approximately 2 km long facility is to include three storage groups with 3, 11 and 9 sidings with a track spacing of 5.25 m. A company building is to be built on Augsburger Strasse and a "technical service point", an outdoor cleaning system and a tank system are to be built in the southern area. There is no provision for passengers to get out.

Among other things, the station is to be connected with a double-track line from Bad Cannstatt and other tracks in this area are to be changed.

The forecast developed by Deutsche Bahn in 2004 on the basis of the traffic forecast for the Federal Transport Infrastructure Plan 2003 envisaged around 204 trains a day between the main train station and the parking area. This corresponds to the number of trains starting and ending daily in Stuttgart Hauptbahnhof. The facility is the sole subject of plan approval section 1.6b of the Stuttgart 21 project. Plan approval section 1.6a follows on both sides. The plan approval procedure was separated due to the fundamentally different construction method (surface construction) compared to section 1.6a (linear construction).

In the updated Stuttgart 21 cost estimate from the end of 2009, a construction cost share of 44.1 million euros is for the first time for “regional parking and treatment facilities”. Any additional costs were to be financed separately, according to Deutsche Bahn, and were not previously part of the Stuttgart 21 project.

The existing depot at Rosensteinpark is expected to be partially shut down in 2019 and completely shut down by 2022 at the latest.

Electronic signal box

In the future, the Karlsruhe operations center will remotely control the entire operating area of ​​Stuttgart 21 via an electronic interlocking in the Untertürkheim maintenance station .

The parking yard is to be equipped with ETCS Level 1 , equipment with Level 2 is being considered.

history

planning

Feasibility study and preliminary project

The feasibility study for the Stuttgart 21 project submitted at the beginning of 1995 already provided for a maintenance and storage station in Untertürkheim. The facility was to be built on the site of the 1.7 km long and 95 m wide marshalling yard in Untertürkheim; the tasks of the marshalling yard should be relocated to Kornwestheim beforehand. Systems arranged one behind the other for the parking, cleaning and technical maintenance of passenger trains were planned. The train formation system should be able to accommodate up to 17 tracks with a usable length of mostly 420 m. According to these plans, the train station was to be connected to the main train station from the northwest via two tracks via the Stuttgart-Bad Cannstatt train station and via a new line via Wangen to Obertürkheim. A connection to the line to Kornwestheim was also planned. This route north of the train station should also be connected to the route to and from Waiblingen with a new connecting curve . At the western edge of the station, the line coming from the Untertürkheim curve was to continue on a single track and join the connecting curve between the Rems and freight bypass line in the direction of Waiblingen.

In the feasibility study presented at the beginning of 1995, costs of 271 million DM were estimated for the maintenance station (236 million DM construction costs plus 15% planning costs; price as of 1993). For the modernization of the existing parking station with the maintenance of the main station as a terminal station (so-called continuation case ) costs of 184 million DM (160 million DM plus 15% planning cost share) were expected.

The plans of the feasibility study were reduced in scope in the course of the preliminary project and only dimensioned for regional traffic. This reduced the space and investment requirements. In the course of the preliminary project, all potential savings were examined with regard to the planned operating concept.

According to the planning status from spring 1998, the construction of the parking station should begin in 2003.

First plan approval procedure

Deutsche Bahn applied for the planning approval procedure for the parking yard in 2004. The plans were planned to be made public in 2007 in the same year. Construction should start in 2013 and commissioning in 2019. In September 2007, it became known that the hearing process had been postponed to 2008. In the course of further planning, noise conflicts should first be avoided. At the end of 2008, the planning approval decision was not expected before the end of 2009. At the end of January 2010, no plans had yet been submitted to the Federal Railway Authority.

The submitted plans were withdrawn in 2010 to modify the track plan. According to a press report, the first plans submitted were rejected by the Federal Railway Authority due to insufficient track spacing. The track spacing was then increased to 5.25 m.

The planning provided for cleaning and maintenance facilities (between Arlbergstrasse and Eszet-Steg) as well as a petrol station. For this purpose, adjustments to light rail tracks and embankments were planned. On the 135,000 m² site, all old tracks were to be removed, 8296 m of new tracks laid, a 128 m long washing facility and a 200 m assembly pit to be built. To this end, 44,000 m³ of excavated earth should be removed and 29,000 m³ of existing ballast redistributed. Together with the parking of regional trains at the terminal stops, the track length, which is roughly halved compared to the previous parking station (17.6 km), should be sufficient. 180 trains should run through the station every day. Wall lizards and wall lizards were to be relocated to a 200 m long and up to 15 m wide strip along the tracks, and bats were to be given boxes with "replacement resting places". Noise limit values ​​in operation would be exceeded by a maximum of two decibels, expected exceedances due to acoustic warnings of train movements should be resolved within the scope of the implementation planning.

On July 1, 2010, the hearing was applied for at the Stuttgart Regional Council. The plans were publicly displayed between July 19, 2010 and August 18, 2010. A total of 700 objections were raised. The application comprised four folders and a species protection examination .

In a statement as a carrier of public concerns , the city of Stuttgart criticized u. a. The comprehensibility of the application, the noise protection reports that they consider to be inadequate and the inadequate protective measures for wall lizards. The hearing process continued at the end of 2011 and a public hearing was not yet in sight.

According to Deutsche Bahn, the raised objections were being processed in mid-2012. The hearing should take place in autumn 2012 (as of July 2012). By the end of 2013, DB did not submit the necessary documents for the subsequent discussion.

Rescheduling

In October 2013, Deutsche Bahn announced that it would submit new documents for the plan approval procedure in this section. Before doing so, it should be clarified how wall lizards should be handled. A new noise protection report should also be submitted. The construction time is to be shortened from seven to three years as part of the rescheduling. According to its own information, Deutsche Bahn planned to submit modified plans to the Federal Railway Office in February or March 2014 in January 2014. The reason for planning delays was given by Deutsche Bahn as the revision of the population mapping for species protection, the resulting revision of the accompanying landscape conservation planning and the "operational optimization of the parking and maintenance facilities in the Stuttgart area". According to the railway information from mid-2014, the plan approval documents were being revised.

The approval process that was started in 2004 was suspended at the end of 2014.

In November 2014, Deutsche Bahn surprisingly announced that it would submit modified plans for the parking station by the end of the year. Compared to the plans from 2009, two overpass structures are to be omitted from the feed. The connection is now provided via switches. According to a press report, this should save between 130 and 150 million. The same efficiency can also be achieved by dispensing with the overpass structures.

In the course of the rescheduling, the number of indoor cleaning systems is also to be reduced from two to one, and there will be no gas station. A workshop hall has been added to the planning. The parking length is to be extended from 7429 to 8856 m. A second interior cleaning system and the use of old track systems in Stuttgart-Münster and -Obertürkheim to park long-distance trains are being considered. The track length that can be used for train parking is to be increased by 1.5 km to 8856 m.

According to the Deutsche Bahn, the plans were re-submitted on December 17, 2014. The plan approval procedure was discontinued at the beginning of March 2015. Revised plans are to be submitted (status: end of July 2015).

Construction was scheduled to start in the 4th quarter of 2017 (as of June 2014). At the beginning of 2015, construction was scheduled to start in 2017. The construction time should be three years. According to Deutsche Bahn, the rescheduling does not endanger the commissioning of the entire project (as of December 2014). Project critics see the new planning as an oath of disclosure for Deutsche Bahn.

Third plan approval procedure

At the beginning of March 2016, Deutsche Bahn announced that it would submit a new plan approval application in the third quarter of 2016. The hearing is scheduled to take place before the 2017 summer vacation and the planning approval is expected for the second quarter of 2018. In the new planning, the tracks of the train traffic are to be moved around 100 m from Augsburger Strasse, thus avoiding noise. The construction time is now only to be two years, noise protection, construction process and operating concept are to be improved. Whether storage capacity should continue to be created in Obertürkheim and Münster is just as open as the realization of the overpass structures that were once planned. A replacement habitat for the 5,000 to 6,000 suspected lizards on the site has not yet been found.

At the end of October 2016, the submission of the documents was planned for the same year. The new plans were presented to the public on November 29, 2016. In Untertürkheim, in addition to the track systems (including 7295 m of usable track length), company buildings, indoor and outdoor cleaning systems, a workshop hall and an electronic signal box are also planned. The freight tracks are to be moved south from Augsburger Straße and connected to a flyover structure (interregional curve). By laying tracks from Augsburger Strasse in the middle of the facility, the distance to the residential area is to be increased by more than 100 meters. Four tracks in Stuttgart-Münster and two in Obertürkheim are also planned for the parking of trains. 5500 lizards are to be relocated to dry stone vineyards in Esslingen.

In November 2016, the submission of the planning approval documents was planned for the beginning of 2017. The hearing process was planned for the 2nd to 4th quarter of 2017, the planning approval decision was expected in the 1st half of 2018.

A new application for planning approval was submitted on April 7, 2017. The public hearing is scheduled for January 15 and 16, 2020.

construction

The start of construction was scheduled for the 4th quarter of 2017 in mid-2014.

Species protection

Deutsche Bahn suspects up to 6500 lizards that are under species protection on the future construction site. The original population gradually mixed with animals that had immigrated from Italy and came with them on freight trains from Italy. Since, according to the specifications of the State Institute for the Environment, Measurements and Nature Conservation Baden-Württemberg, only native animals may be relocated, the native (autochthonous) line should be separated from the immigrated animals by means of genetic analyzes. The extent to which these requirements are legally binding is controversial. The Federal Railway Authority, as the licensing authority, ultimately has to make the decision on a permissible solution.

discourse

Critics criticize inadequate planning and deficiencies in the planning approval process. They fear noise emissions of up to 107 decibels and damage to nature in a disused part of the facility that has developed into a biotope.

As part of the project alternative terminus station 21 , a relocation of the storage station from Rosenstein to Untertürkheim was also planned from around 2009. Among other things, a new bridge over the Neckar and two additional tracks in the Neckar Valley were to be built.
