WDR Lokalzeit – talk of the town | February 5, 2026, 8:03 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. | WDR 5
A multi-million euro transportation project, promising to slash commute times by roughly 35 minutes along a 20-kilometer route, is sparking debate in the Aachen region. The Regiotram aims to ease traffic congestion and accelerate the shift towards sustainable transport, but questions linger about its impact on residents during construction and its long-term financial viability.
We would like to discuss this with you and the following guests:
- Dr. Kathrin Driessen – Head of Mobility and Quality, ASEAG
- Prof. Dr. Rudolf Juchelka – University of Duisburg-Essen, transport geographer
- Birk Müller – Project Manager Regiotram, AVV
