  • S2-Verlängerung: RMV, Landkreise Und Landhessen Stoßen
    Hofheim, 21. Dezember 2020 S2-Verlängerung: RMV, Landkreise und Land Hessen stoßen Planungen an Vorstudie von RMV und Landkreisen empfiehlt S-Bahn-Verbindung zwischen Kreis Offenbach und Landkreis Darmstadt-Dieburg / Land Hessen will Planungsvereinbarung mit DB schließen / vor S-Bahn-Verlängerung Halbstundentakt auf Dreieichbahn bis Dieburg geplant Im Rahmen einer umfassenden Vorstudie haben der Rhein-Main- Verkehrsverbund (RMV), der Kreis Offenbach und der Landkreis Darmstadt- Dieburg in mehreren Varianten untersucht, wie die beiden Landkreise per Schiene besser miteinander verknüpft werden können: Favorisiert wird eine Verlängerung der S2 bis Dieburg oder in einer zweiten Variante bis Darmstadt. Zum Abschluss der Vorstudie verständigten sich die Partner mit dem Land Hessen in der „Dietzenbach-Dieburger Erklärung“ darüber, im nächsten Schritt eine Planungsvereinbarung mit der Deutschen Bahn zu treffen. Diese beinhaltet eine Vorplanung sowie die Nutzen-Kosten-Untersuchung der beiden Varianten. Im Rahmen dieser Planungen können dann tiefergehende Untersuchungen zum genauen Streckenverlauf, zur Bautechnik und den Umweltwirkungen durchgeführt sowie die Förderwürdigkeit überprüft werden. Erweisen sich die Vorschläge als förderfähig, wäre eine Realisierung der Verlängerung bis Anfang der 2030er-Jahre denkbar. Variante 1: Verlängerung der S2 bis Dieburg Das beste Verhältnis von Investitionsmitteln zu den zu erwartenden Vorteilen ergibt die Verlängerung der S2 von ihrem Endpunkt in Dietzenbach über die Dreieichbahn nach Dieburg. Rund 4.500 zusätzliche werktägliche Fahrgäste könnten so hinzukommen. Das Konzept beinhaltet eine 3,1 Kilometer lange Neubaustrecke, um die Lücke im Schienennetz zwischen Dietzenbach und Urberach zu schließen. Ab Urberach könnte die S2 dann die vorhandenen Gleise der Dreieichbahn nutzen. Durch Elektrifizierung und Ausbau der Bahnsteige wird in dieser Variante die bestehende Infrastruktur für den S-Bahn-Betrieb ertüchtigt.

  • Distribution of Economic Power and Income Between Major Cities And
    Journal of Business and Economics, ISSN 2155-7950, USA December 2013, Volume 4, No. 12, pp. 1187-1200 Academic Star Publishing Company, 2013 http://www.academicstar.us Distribution of Economic Power and Income between Major Cities and Their Regions in Germany Werner Münzenmaier (Ministry of Finance and Economics Baden-Wuerttemberg, Neues Schloss, D70173 Stuttgart, Germany) Abstract: Based on National Accounts Data for production and income, this article deals with the question how intensive the five economically strongest German cities radiate into their neighboring regions. In this respect, the situation is very different for the five cities and their regions: (1) Two cities (Hamburg, Dusseldorf) are very dominant and exceed the districts of their respective region in all four per-capita indicators; (2) although Munich is an economically very strong city it is surpassed by some rural districts of its region with respect to productivity and income; (3) Frankfurt as an international banking center has a very productive economy and offers the highest earnings of all major cities but it looses a lot of purchasing power due to the commuting of well earning employees residing in more attractive neighboring communities; (4) the indicators show very small disparities within the Region of Stuttgart which is characterized by the production of cars and other investment goods and insofar differs from the other regions with core cities dominating in business services. Key words: regional accounts; labor productivity; compensation of employees; income; cities JEL codes: E01, J30, O18, R12 1. Introduction Major cities radiate in many ways into their neighboring regions. Typically, these cities are economically closely intertwined with the surrounding cities and municipalities and can therefore be considered as the core cities of an area.
