The Federal Ministry of Transport should take the current debate on the federal budget as an opportunity to „reassess and consistently cancel planned trunk road projects“, especially in the area of new road construction and expansion. This could save around €20 billion by 2030 and free up financial resources for investment in the transport transition. This is the conclusion reached by the Forum Ökologisch-Soziale Marktwirtschaft (FÖS) in a new short study commissioned by Klima-Allianz, BUND, Auto-Club Europa (ACE) and Verdi.
