Construction site chaos in Siegerland: train cancellations and closures are imminent!

There is currently a lot of movement in Cologne and the surrounding region when it comes to the traffic situation. The SZ traffic sticker provides information about construction sites, bus route changes, full closures and train cancellations in the Siegerland, Wittgenstein, Olpe and Altenkirchen districts. Particularly noticeable was the RE9 connection from Siegen to Cologne, which is regularly affected by delays and cancellations and is known to take around 90 minutes. That goes without saying: there’s something going on!

But it's not just the RE9 that's causing trouble. The Rothaarbahn from Bad Berleburg to Betzdorf, which is served by HLB, often has to contend with cancellations and delays. This poses a real challenge for many commuters. In any case, rapid progress looks different! The construction sites around federal highway 508 in Kredenbach are also causing traffic jams and dissatisfaction among drivers. Further construction work is underway in Allenbach, and the Schleifmühlchen mega project, which will be carried out in several phases, began the first construction phase in May 2023.

Current information in real time

In order to accommodate travelers to some extent, Deutsche Bahn offers various digital services. On bahn.de aktuell, users can find the train radar, which shows the position of the trains in real time, as well as an interactive disruption map, which helps with current train cancellations and route interruptions. This platform has become the central point of contact for Deutsche Bahn traffic information and also offers push notifications in the event of delays via the delay alarm function. db-fahrplan.com reports in detail about these necessary services.

There is also another useful tool, DB LiveMaps. This application makes it possible to track trains in real time and provides information about construction sites and disruptions. This makes them particularly valuable for train drivers, but also for anyone who wants to find out more about their train. Acoustic push notifications can be set to receive notifications for specific trains and operating point disruptions. This way you always stay up to date and can plan better. DB-infrago.com provides this outstanding function.
