ICE closure: Start massive construction work between Cologne and Frankfurt

ICE expansion between Cologne and Frankfurt affects travel plans

From Tuesday, the ICE speed route between Cologne and Frankfurt will be closed for almost four weeks due to construction work. According to the railways, travelers have to prepare for train failures and delays between 40 and 90 minutes. The holding in Siegburg/Bonn, Montabaur and Limburg Süd can be reached with bus replacement traffic because the trains are diverted.

In this period, a total of 70 kilometers of tracks and 13 course along the route are to be renewed. The blocking was originally planned by August 16, but work could be completed faster. The blocking of the route has an impact on commuters, business travelers and tourists alike and requires careful planning of alternative travel routes and time reserves.

The blocking of the ICE route between Cologne and Frankfurt shows the continuous need for maintenance work on modern traffic routes. The smooth operation of high -speed trains requires regular maintenance and renovation to ensure the safety of passengers and to ensure an efficient train connection. These construction work is crucial to ensure the longevity and reliability of the rail network in Germany.
