2. Core S-Bahn route
Centrepiece of the railway expansion in the Munich region
> 40
m building depth
The stations of the 2nd core S-Bahn route will be the deepest in Germany.
Remedy for the overloaded local transport system
The 2nd main line tunnel runs via the three new underground stations: “Hauptbahnhof”, “Marienhof”, and “Ostbahnhof”.

Planning period
Since 2017
Service areas
Object planning for civil engineering structures, structural engineering, feasibility studies, cross-discipline coordination within the engineering consortium, preparatory work for the finalisation of the approval planning for all three stations
- Because several underground lines have to be crossed, the “Hauptbahnhof” and “Marienhof” stations are located at a depth of around 40 m and the “Ostbahnhof” station at a depth of 16 m
- With only three stations, the new main line enables considerably shorter journey times. The introduction of an express S-Bahn system leads to attractive journey times between the surrounding area and the city
- SSF Ingenieure plans the optimisation of the three underground stations – “Hauptbahnhof”, “Marienhof”, and “Ostbahnhof” – for the 2nd core S-Bahn route in an engineering consortium
- At the main railway station, a “retaining body” is being considered for the future U9; this will allow the underground line to be realised at a later date as part of an integrated overall solution
