Railway service interruptions on Line RB 70, stretching from Merzig to Saarlouis, from July 29 to August 18
Deutsche Bahn has announced a slope stabilization project in Fremersdorf, which will affect the train line between Merzig and Saarlouis from July 29 to August 18. As a result, there may be delays of up to five minutes on RB 71 trips towards Trier due to single-track operation.
While the lines RE 1 and RB 71 will continue to run according to schedule, passengers are advised to allow for more travel time and to check the current traffic situation before departure.
Alternative Train Options and Potential Delays
During this period, the train line between Merzig and Saarlouis will have significant restrictions. Passengers should expect potential delays due to single-track operation or slower safety speeds around the work zone.
Alternative train options during such work usually include replacement bus services or rerouting via nearby lines. However, no replacement bus service is planned for the suspended RB 70 line.
Staying Informed
For specific questions about the construction project, passengers can contact [email protected]. Information will also be provided at the stations during the period of restrictions.
Passengers can find information on connections at www.bahn.de/aktuell. The DB Navigator app can also provide information regarding connections.
