The German federal government has announced plans to allocate €106.5 billion to modernize and develop the railway infrastructure by 2029

This largest investment program will cover the renewal of tracks, bridges, tunnels and crossings across the entire Deutsche Bahn network, operated by subsidiary DB InfraGO.

According to the company, at the end of 2024, the length of the German railway network was 33,365 km, including more than 64 thousand switches, 13,445 crossings, 761 tunnels with a total length of 654 km and more than 25 thousand bridges. Every day, the infrastructure serves around 20 million passengers at 5,400 stations.

In addition to the railways, federal funding provides €51.9 billion for the road sector and €7.6 billion for the development of inland waterways. The total investment volume in all modes of transport will reach €166 billion, which is 63% more than in the previous five-year period (2020–2024).
