What position does the FBBC have in regard to the fixed link?

The Fehmarnbelt fixed link is to strengthen the axis of growth between the metropolitan areas of Copenhagen/Malmö and Hamburg/Lübeck. To support this process, the Fehmarnbelt Business Council (FBBC) was established in Lübeck in 2007. It is only with the early involvement of the business community that the Fehmarnbelt fixed link will become a success from the very first day of opening. Since the establishment of the FBBC, its member organisations have been pursuing this common goal.

What is the current status of planning of the Fehmarnbelt fixed link?

The Danish–German infrastructure project includes both the tunnel between Lolland and Fehmarn as well as the necessary expansion of the connections for road and rail as well as sustainable solutions for the Fehmarnsund link.
