There aren't such big cities in Switzerland to actually need a metro. Surface transport does just fine, plus some transit trains going under where it can't be avoided. So yes lately many investments go in new train tunnels, you can load your car and go that way for really long distances or across mountains, you have the sleeping wagons back in fashion, you can send your heavy luggage ahead via same train for a minor charge, you have night transport for when you come back drunk from clubbing... so you can keep your car for the casual shopping trip and for taxiing kid's football team to the weekend match. Not much need otherwise, and yes, it works already.
