Large construction work: Stadtbahn with massive restrictions until November!

Large construction work: Stadtbahn with massive restrictions until November!

During the autumn holidays, the Berlin S-Bahn faces a huge change: From October 21 to November 13, 2024, considerable restrictions in S-Bahn traffic are expected due to extensive construction measures. This work primarily concerns the ring railway and the important north-south lines. The S-Bahn asks the passengers for attention and to better plan their trips, since the failures will have a noticeable impact on daily commuting.

The concrete changes are diverse and affect different sections of the route. In particular, there are drastic restrictions on the Spindlersfeld-Schöneweide between October 18 and November 4: from Friday, 10 p.m. to Monday, 1:30 a.m., S-Bahn traffic between these stops will be completely stopped. At the same time, the section between Greifswalder Straße and Wedding, as well as Nordbahnhof and Alt-Reinickendorf will also be affected. Here the passengers have to expect corresponding failures between October 21 and November 13th.

Additional information about the construction work

Another important section that is affected by track work is the connection between Altglienicke and the airport BER. This construction work, which lasts until November 8, means that there is no S-Bahn traffic between the airport and Adlershof. Deutsche Bahn appeals to passengers to switch to regional traffic if necessary, since replacement traffic was set up by bus in order to alleviate the restrictions as much as possible.

The exact planning of the S-Bahn construction work is documented in the VBB Fahrinfo and the corresponding apps. It is recommended to find out about the current circumstances before the trips and to plan the additional time. Those responsible are aware that such construction measures have inconvenience, but hope for an improvement in the route infrastructure in the long term.

The urban infrastructure is decisively upgraded by these measures, which is of great importance, especially in a big city like Berlin. Despite the current restrictions, the S-Bahn plays a central role in the daily flow of traffic, and such work is necessary in order to meet the growing requirements.
