Popular stretching closes from Saturday night
It may well be that the weekend offers fun and socializing across regions, but for those who plan to cross the belt between Jutland and Fun on Saturday night, it may be necessary to think in alternative courses.
For travelers on the busy train line between Odense, Middelfart and Fredericia on Saturday evening will not go according to usual timetables.
It writes Banedanmark on their Website
Baned Denmark reports on track work, which temporarily stops the train operation between the regions in the period from Saturday night to Sunday morning.
This kind of maintenance work is necessary to keep the infrastructure in good shape, but this means that passengers have to replace shining with asphalt for a few hours.
Therefore, Banedanmark has deployed train buses to cover the affected stretch so that no one is left on the platform.
According to the information on the website Mittog.dk is the first departure from Fredericia by train bus at 19.57, while the first bus opposite from Odense runs at 20.20.
The track work is a recurring part of the maintenance on the heavily trafficked line that connects East and Western Denmark. Travelers are encouraged to orient themselves in the traffic information prior to departure.
For Baned Denmark, it is about ensuring the long term reliability. « The change is due to track work, » it sounds briefly on their website.
Although for some it may feel like a nuisance in the middle of the weekend’s transport plans, the purpose is clear:
A robust and stable railway infrastructure that can also connect Denmark across the regions in the future for everyday life and in holiday traffic.
