Pratteln-Augst tramway: the Swiss government gives its approval<\/h1>\n

BLT Baselland Transport AG will have until 2025 to extend the public railroad line and connect the development poles “Gr\u00fcssen” and “Salina Raurica”<\/em><\/h3>\n

The BLT Baselland Transport AG (BLT) has received approval from the Swiss Confederation to extend the streetcar line 14 from Pratteln to Augst.
\nAt its meeting on March 5, 2021, the Federal Council adapted the BLT’s infrastructure concession to this effect.<\/p>\n

Streetcar 14 of BLT Baselland Transport AG currently runs from the border between the cantons of Basel-Stadt and Basel-Landschaft via Muttenz to Pratteln.
\nWith the extension of the concession, the BLT will be able to extend the line to Augst. The aim is to link the “Gr\u00fcssen” and “Salina Raurica” development areas.<\/p>\n

Construction is expected to begin three years after the decision approving the plans becomes final.
\nThe extension of the concession granted by the Federal Council is only one of the prerequisites for the tramway extension and does not guarantee its completion.
\nAt the end of 2020, a referendum will be launched to oppose the credit granted by the Basel-Stadt cantonal council for the planning work. The citizens of the canton will then vote on the project.<\/p>\n
