Switzerland’s underground freight project gets start date
Anyone able to comment on why 30km hour was targeted for the high capacity lanes?  Given system is automated, would think higher speeds would be targeted, especially given the system is within tunnels. Simple math without knowing more would suggest 60km would be 2x more, 120km 4x more.<p>__<p>Edit: Here are prior HN comments 57-days ago on a different article:<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31204168" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31204168</a><p>__<p>Edit-2: Here’s a map to that provides a idea of how the population is spread out in the country:<p><a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9b/Städtischen_Bevölkerung_Schweiz_2019_de.png" rel="nofollow">https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/9b/Städtisc...</a>
