history

On June 28, 1990 - after more than two years of negotiations - the transport ministers of the two still separate German states, Horst Gibner and Friedrich Zimmermann , signed the basic agreement in Bonn on the construction of a double-track, electrified high-speed rail link to improve passenger and freight traffic on the route between Berlin and Hanover (other source: Schnellbahnverbindungen (SBV) Hanover – Berlin ) along the existing Lehrter Bahn . The agreement governed the implementation of the high-speed line between Oebisfelde and Berlin Friedrichstrasse station (exclusively). The establishment of the PGS for the realization of the high-speed line in this section was also agreed. PGS was founded in August 1990 as a subsidiary of the two German railways organized under private law. Its constituent meeting took place on August 22, 1990.

The company was responsible for the planning and construction of the new line between Oebisfelde and Berlin-Staaken. Her responsibility thus included the implementation of the new line in the federal states of Saxony-Anhalt and Brandenburg . The Deutsche Bundesbahn held 50.1 percent and the Deutsche Reichsbahn 49.9 percent of the company. The company had offices in Hanover and Berlin. The company was also responsible for expanding the Berlin-Lehrter railway . The company later became a subsidiary of Deutsche Bahn AG .

The realization by a separate project company was a special feature of the Transport Projects German Unity (VDE), which resulted from the start of the project in GDR times. The other VDE rail projects, however, were implemented by the planning company Bahnbau Deutsche Einheit.

The company was merged with the PBDE on April 1, 1996 (according to other information in January 1996). The managing director's contracts, which expired in 1996, were not extended.

The company recently employed around 60 people. Helmut Weber and Hans Dieter Weiß acted as managing directors.
