followed Franz-Rücker-Allee north. The Federal Highway 66 and the Bockenheimer cemetery would have been crossed west of the Ginnheimer highway, only at the height of the existing tram stop Markus Hospital would have the tunnel again reached the tram line. In the immediate aftermath, the second stop, located under the Ginnheimer Landstrasse, would have been reached. This was to bear the name Ginnheim and replace both the existing terminus of the U1 line and the tram stop at Markuskrankenhaus. In the area of today's light rail terminus, a new tunnel ramp was to be created, which would have established the connection between the D line and the U1 branch line operated since 1978. The start of construction of the 2004 adopted planning was scheduled for 2006, commissioning for 2010. The realization should cost a total of 173 million euros. After the local elections in 2006, however, the already approved planning was discarded before the groundbreaking ceremony took place. On 16 December 2010, the city council decided to investigate possible route variants for the gap between the stations Ginnheim and Bockenheimer Warte. The concept "Ginnheimer Kurve" proposed by the citizens' initiative "Save the U5!" In 2010 should be taken into account. According to the report submitted in July 2015, two variants are to be pursued in a planning manner. At the end of 2015, the Frankfurt City Parliament decided to complete the closing of the gap, but did not commit to one of the two variants. However, the construction of the project should take place only in a few years. Ginnheimer Kurve Variant The route is to be led from the south in a long S-curve under the Miquelallee and the Grüneburgpark to Campus Westend. After the underground crossing of the junction Miquelallee the Federal Highway 66 is an aboveground section to the breakpoint at the Bundesbank run in high altitude next to the Money Museum. Here is a link with the planned tram ring line on the Wilhelm-Epstein-road possible. From the Bundesbank, the route runs above ground to the Platenstraße station and then follows it to the Ginnheim station, which is relocated to the south side of the Ginnheimer Landstraße under Rosa-Luxemburg-Straße. For this variant, daily 12,250 additional passengers are expected, the construction costs should amount to a maximum of 193 million euros. Europaturm Variant The route runs from the Bockenheimer Warte under Miquelalle to the station Botanischer Garten south
