Therefore, in order to promote this major project, it is necessary to rely on some extraordinary forces.
Although Belgium is a constitutional monarchy, the railway construction plan in Belgium is almost solely driven by King Leopold I.
Even though he can so easily promote railway construction because it is a decision that aligns with the interests of most Belgians, convincing the Belgian Parliament to approve the construction plan is not difficult.
Since the Belgian Parliament can be persuaded by the King, the Hanover Council can naturally be persuaded by Royal Family members.
The operation of the railway can not only improve transportation but also accelerate population flow, drive industrial development, and alleviate employment pressure in rural areas.
Moreover, railway construction can directly create thousands of labor employment positions and indirectly boost nearby steel processing and machinery manufacturing, thus increasing employment opportunities significantly.
