From the central railway station to the Europaallee.

The stairway now leads travellers quickly and without obstruction from the Sihlquai Passage and the Löwenstrasse/Zurich HB railway station to the Europaplatz, which by the end of the construction period had an area of 6,000m². The improvement consists of steps, escalators and lifts. It also provides direct access to the Europaplatz bicycle station.
