Railway expansion between Nuremberg and Bamberg: full closure from October 25th!

Bamberg, Deutschland - Deutsche Bahn (DB) has announced the complete blocking of the Bamberg - Forchheim railway line. This measure comes into force from October 25, 2024, 10 p.m. until November 1, 2024, 10 p.m. On October 27, 2024, travelers must also expect a one -day extension of the blocking in regional traffic on the Bamberg - Fürth - -Nuremberg route. On this day, the S-Bahn between Bamberg and Fürth completely fail. The DB bundles all work to keep the effects on traffic as low as possible during the construction work.

Nicole Kumpfmüller-Böhm, overall project manager for the railway expansion Nuremberg-Bamberg, reports that the last construction work between Forchheim and Eggolsheim are in full swing. Here lead and backup technology are installed and overhead lines are set up, and the tracks are also expanded. Extensive replacement traffic is set up during the blocking, with regional trains and S-Bahn to be replaced by buses. Long -distance travelers have to expect a detour via Würzburg, which extends their travel time by about 100 minutes. All current information on replacement traffic and the amended timetables are available on the usual information platforms and under bahn.de/bauwork .
