S-Bahn fault in Berlin: Delays for defective signal box!
S-Bahn fault in Berlin: Delays for defective signal box!
In Berlin, the clocks are currently not going well, at least when it comes to the light rail. On June 12, 2025, there will be noticeable disabilities on the important light railway line. The background is a defective signal box on Friedrichstrasse, which messes up the timetables of the S-Bahn lines S3, S5, S7, S75 and S9. According to RBB24, delays are on the agenda on these lines, which means an unpleasant surprise for travelers.
The S3 is particularly affected, which only runs every 10 minutes between Erkner and Warschauer Straße. With the S5, driving to the section between Strausberg Nord/Hoppegarten and Ostbahnhof is limited, while the S75 only runs between Wartenberg and Lichtenberg. For commuters and travelers who rely on these connections, this means adapting their routes and the associated times.Details on clock changes
However, the situation does not only raise its own problems for the S-Bahn. In addition to the delays, there are also acute changes on many other routes, which are sufficient until late in the following month. In an overview on the website of the S-Bahn, various clock changes were announced, which the passengers should also have on the screen. For example, between the 13th and June 25th, rides between Wannsee and Zehlendorf as well as between Grunewald and Potsdam at certain times are eliminated. During this time, buses can be used as an alternative means of transport, which requires switching to the bus.
- ** Wannsee <> Zehlendorf: ** 13.06. until June 25th, 10 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.
- ** Grunewald <> Potsdam: ** 13.06. until June 25th, 10 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.
- ** Karlshorst/Wuhletal - Warschauer Straße: ** clock change, 16./17 June, 10 p.m. to 1:30 a.m.
The diversity of the transport companies in the region ensures that flexible can be used to alternative connections, such as VBB. This includes both the East German Eisenbahn Society MBH (ODEG) and the Berlin Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG), which should react well to the new challenges.
The current disorders on the S-Bahn lines and the associated restrictions require a lot of patience and forward-looking planning from passengers. It remains to be hoped that the necessary repairs to the signal box will quickly go so that the flow of traffic will soon normalize and the usual everyday pendulum life will return.
