In #Binningen near #Basel, the canton and light-rail operator #BLT are doubling a single track section. Houses are dismantled, the whole road is being widened and rebuilt. This includes the former light-rail track.
Instead of closing the line, they built a temporary diversion track on one of the former road lanes, so trains can still operate! 💪
A shining example of the customer oriented approach and the will to find and pay for solutions, that makes Swiss local public transportation stand out.

An old «Schindler» tram crosses the construction site on the temporary track to the very right of the site. The former original track was more to the left. Catenary support poles at the left of the image indicate, where the future tracks will be placed.

Comparison of the old and new street cross section. The new road is wider and there are two instead of one light rail tracks.
