Ute Plambeck, Amina Karam and Anjes Tjarks lift an element of the first noise barrier for the S4 together with the construction company.
Taking big steps towards the mobility shift: DB is building the first tracks and noise barriers on the S4 in Hamburg. More than 6,000 households will benefit from the new noise protection in the first construction phase alone. DB is reducing the noise by 20 decibels with noise-protection windows, soled railway sleepers and noise-protection walls. With a reduction of just ten decibels, people perceive the noise as only half as loud. The new urban railway line connects Hamburg's east with Schleswig-Holstein. DB Representative Ute Plambeck and Hamburg's Transport Senator Anjes Tjarks were on site today and gave the go-ahead for the construction of the first noise barriers.
