Weekend Subway Limitations in Munich: Impact on Specific Lines
This weekend, passengers in Munich are advised to plan their travels carefully due to restrictions on the U-Bahn. The construction work near Hohenzollernplatz is causing changes in the U-Bahn service, affecting the U2 line and, indirectly, the U3 and U6 lines.
The U2 line in Munich will be divided into different sections from Feldmoching to Harthof to Scheidplatz (Track 3) and Scheidplatz (Track 4) to Hauptbahnhof to Messestadt Ost. During this period, the MVG, responsible for providing information about the U-Bahn restrictions, has explained that at Milbertshofen and Hohenzollernplatz stations, U-bahns will run in all directions from the same track.
Passengers should be aware that the U8 line in Munich will operate on a shortened route between Hauptbahnhof and Neuperlach Zentrum during the restrictions. Between Hauptbahnhof and Olympiazentrum, passengers are advised to use the U2 and U3 lines. A transfer via the intermediate level is necessary for continued travel in both directions on the U2 line during the restrictions.
The affected lines on Munich's U-Bahn this weekend are the U3 and U6 lines. These lines are undergoing modernization and renovation work, including in the southern sections where Hohenzollernplatz is located, resulting in service restrictions. The construction work is expected to cause disruptions from August 9, 2025, around 4 am, until the end of service.
The MVG encourages passengers to stay informed and follow the updates provided about the restrictions. The entity is committed to ensuring a smooth transition for passengers during this period of construction work.
- The alterations in Munich's U-Bahn service due to construction work near Hohenzollernplatz have indirectly impacted not only the U2 line but also the U3 and U6 lines, affecting the finance and public-transit industry.
- As the U2 line is divided into different sections this weekend, and the U8 line will run on a shortened route, transportation alternatives such as the U3 and U3 lines are recommended for passengers between Hauptbahnhof and Olympiazentrum, reflecting adaptations in Munich's public-transit industry.
