The project "Border crossing Czech Republic: Dresden – Schöna – Czech Republic" closes the existing ETCS gap on the Berlin – Dresden – Prague route and is part of the Trans-European Transport Network Corridor (TEN Corridor) Orient – Eastmediterranean. The aim of the project is to make the Berlin – Prague route fully accessible across borders and without restrictions – by introducing the standardised Europe-wide train control system ETCS Level 2 ETCS without signals (ETCS L2oS).

As part of the introduction of signals away Level 2 ETCS, the existing interlockings will be replaced by modern interlockings. The project thus contributes to the realisation of DB InfraGO AG's DSD vision.
