Surge in COVID-19 cases: Government considers new measures

In the midst of the fight for the Germany ticket, Schleswig-Holstein is putting pressure on the federal government. The state government is calling for the ticket to be expanded in order to enable more people to enjoy affordable local public transport. So far, the Deutschlandticket is only valid for Deutsche Bahn trains.

Schleswig-Holstein argues that expanding the offer to include buses and regional trains would increase the attractiveness of the ticket and make an important contribution to environmental protection. The state government is counting on the federal government to join the demand and start appropriate negotiations.

The Deutschlandticket is currently only valid during off-peak hours and is therefore met with criticism from many people. Schleswig-Holstein emphasizes the importance of an attractive and affordable local transport offer for the mobility of its citizens.

The state's demand is supported by various associations and organizations that are committed to a sustainable transport policy. It remains to be seen how the federal government will react to the pressure from Schleswig-Holstein and whether the Germany ticket will be expanded.
