Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the federal administrative appeal against the UVEK planning approval was admissible.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The appeal was admissible in principle because UVEK planning approval decisions in this railway project were directly challengeable before the Federal Supreme Court.
Extrahierte Begründung
For major railway projects, the Federal Supreme Court has direct review jurisdiction; appeal to the UVEK appeal commission is excluded.
