Schwerin (dpa/mv) - The CDU parliamentary group in Schwerin welcomes the Lower Saxony proposal for a North German model as the successor to the 9-euro ticket. The federal government is divided on the subject of a connection solution, "in this respect, a transport policy cooperation between the northern countries is absolutely right to increase the pressure on the federal government, but also to develop opportunities for a cross-state transport concept," said the transport policy spokesman for the CDU parliamentary group, Daniel Peters , on Sunday in Schwerin.
At the same time, however, Peters emphasized that, from his point of view, the billions that flowed into the 9-euro ticket would have been better invested in expanding the route and improving timing.
The Ministry of Transport in Lower Saxony - in the event that the federal government does not provide a nationwide connection solution - brought a joint approach by the five northern German states into play. How exactly the ministry of Bernd Althusmann (CDU) imagines the implementation remained open.
