Dr. Kefer and Prof. Wittke joining Forum Stuttgart 21 of the newspaper Stuttgarter Nachrichten
Together with the member of the management board of the German Railways, Dr. Volker Kefer, Prof. Wittke answered questions of the editors of the newspaper Stuttgarter Nachrichten, Mr. Jörg Hamann and Mr. Nikolai Forstbauer. Approx. 300 invited guests joined the very informative event "Forum Stuttgart 21", which concluded in a reception, during which discussions were continued in smaller circles.
We are very pleased that Prof. Wittke was again able to inform the public on this very challenging and interesting large-scale infrastructure project.
