Federal government intervenes in Zurich traffic light dispute

nzz.ch (German)

A traffic light remains non-functional at Neumühlequai, causing significant traffic disruptions. The signal has been stuck on yellow for twelve days following a dispute between the city and canton over a painted bike lane. The canton removed the lane, but the city has not reactivated the traffic light. The federal government has become involved due to safety risks from traffic backups, particularly in the Milchbucktunnel. The city is pursuing legal action to reinstate the bike lane.
