Sweco has been awarded a contract by Deutsche Bahn (DB), the German national railway company, starting in May 2025 and extending for approximately 4.5 years with the possibility of a five-year extension.

As part of a consortium, Sweco will oversee the construction supervision for a significant infrastructure project aimed at doubling the capacity and efficiency of the “S-Bahn.”

The project includes adding a second line, constructing a new tunnel under the city centre and upgrading stations.

Munich is the third-largest city in Germany, after Berlin and Hamburg, and serves as an economic hub with a growing population that is expected to continue increasing in the coming decades. Originally designed to carry approximately 250,000 passengers each working day, the city’s commuter rail system, the “S-Bahn,” now serves over 800,000 users daily.

Substantial investments are currently underway to improve connectivity between Munich and its suburbs, to reduce overcrowding and to support sustainable urban growth. One of the key infrastructure projects comprises the expansion of the S-Bahn, which aims to double its capacity and raise efficiency.

“Sweco has undertaken several projects for Deutsche Bahn in the past, and we have a strong, long-standing relationship. As a leading European consultancy in the field of transportation, with 6,000 experts in mobility and active travel, we are proud to have been selected to advise Deutsche Bahn on this project, which is of vital importance for Munich and the entire Bavarian region,” says Julia Zantke, Business Area President for Sweco in Germany.

Sweco’s involvement in the expansion will engage approximately 60 experts on a daily basis in the provision of engineering services for the construction of a second line, the new tunnel under the city centre and upgrades to existing stations.
