railway blocking for general renovation: Effects on commercial traffic

The upcoming general renovation of the Frankfurt-Mannheim railway line not only ensures restrictions in regional transport, but also has a significant impact on commercial traffic in the region. The blocking forces companies to use alternative transport routes and thus cause additional costs.

In order to maintain the required capacity for long-distance and freight traffic, a total of around 150 replacement buses are used. Regional traffic is diverted via the distances in parallel, which in turn leads to restrictions in other regions. Rhineland-Palatinate is particularly affected because one of the detour routes contains the connection of Mainz-Worms-Ludwigshafen.

For passengers in long -distance transport, the blocking means longer travel times of about 30 minutes, as a third of the trains are eliminated and some holds are left out. Deutsche Bahn has integrated all changes into the timetable and provides it to travelers via their app.

In order to keep the effects on commercial roads as low as possible, companies should check alternative transport options at an early stage and adjust capacity if necessary. The railway closure clearly shows how closely intertwined man and commercial transport in the region and illustrates the importance of a smooth transport system.
