Shoppers at the Mall of Switzerland were in for some excitement yesterday when the entire mall was evacuated shortly before noon due to a bomb alert. The evacuation was peaceful and no one was injured. The mall remained closed for the rest of the day but is due to reopen on Thursday morning.
It might have seemed like the KKL was also having a forced evacuation but actually today they conducted an exercise using 1600 students as standings to make sure that should an evacuation be necessary everyone knew what to do.
The Swiss Museum of Transport is planning to redo their train building and create a new entrance hall, as well as conference and office spaces all to the tune of CHF 36 million francs. The reason is better access to public transport and the need to renovate the building which was originally built in 1959. The current exhibition will be moved to another space in the museum, meaning that visitors will continue to enjoy a full experience at the museum.
