Train failures and diversions: travelers in Lower Saxony affected!
Train failures and diversions: travelers in Lower Saxony affected!
As of today, travelers in Lower Saxony have to adapt to considerable restrictions on train traffic. The railway line between Hanover and Bremen is closed until April 28, 2025 due to construction work and the necessary renovation measures. These developments not only affect regional traffic, but also long -distance transport, which leads to longer travel times and a switch to alternative routes. The reason for the current situation is damage to the railway embankment that was found when the ground in Wunstorf sagged. These events were already registered on March 10, which led to the immediate introduction of repair work.Deutsche Bahn recommends travelers to find out about their connections before starting travel. Information is available on the Deutsche Bahn website, the DB Navigator app or by phone. During the construction work, the route speed is limited to 70 km/h, and on a section of around 300 meters, only 30 km/h may be driven.
extensive effects on traffic
The effects of the blocking are far -reaching. No direct connections are offered on the affected connections, especially between Hanover and Bremen as well as Hanover and Berlin. Long -distance trains need an average of 45 minutes more for the route between the two cities. The construction work also means that the IC and ICE trains do not hold in Wolfsburg for the time being, sometimes there are replacement stops in Braunschweig. Deutsche Bahn plans to alleviate the effects of the work by April 14th.
In regional traffic, lines RE 1 and RE 8 from DB Regio Nord and the S-Bahn S 2 are affected. Trains between Hanover and Neustadt am Rübenberge fail, and the S-Bahn between Wunstorf and Nienburg/Weser is also not operated. Travelers are asked to use the S-Bahn lines S 1 and S 2 as well as the regional trains Re 60 and RE 70. In addition, replacement traffic with buses between Wunstorf and Neustadt am Rübenberge is ready, but no bicycle transport is possible.
alternatives and further information
For passengers who want to move on the Hanover-Bremen route, there are alternative routes via Hamburg-Harburg. Deutsche Bahn asks for understanding the inconvenience that this construction work brings. All changes in the timetable have been updated in the corresponding information media and booking systems. Travelers should find out about possible options in advance to avoid long waiting times and bypasses.
In summary, it can be said that the construction work that leads to these extensive disorders was scheduled by the Lower Saxony State Transport Authority in order to complete the necessary expansion of the infrastructure. Travelers are encouraged to show patience while the work is completed.| Details | |
