Tram Service Resumes on Odenwaldbahn, Starting 18th August

The Zell bridge on the B45 and the railway line beneath it have been closed for several weeks following an incident in late July, when the bridge was blown up. This closure has caused significant traffic disruptions on the B45.

However, there is some good news for commuters and travellers. The Vias operator, responsible for the railway stations in the area, has announced that all stations will be operational once approval is secured. The operator has also assured that all stations will be accessible without transfers, making travel more convenient for passengers.

While the Vias operator has made these announcements, it is important to note that they have not yet secured approval for the resumption of operations at the stations. The infrastructure operator is expected to make a decision by the end of the week. Once the approval is granted, the Zell bridge and the railway line will reopen, allowing passengers to travel without transfers.

The exact reopening date will depend on the progress of the reconstruction work and official announcements from local authorities or transportation departments. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is recommended to check recent updates from the relevant local government office, the transportation department, or news sources covering the reconstruction efforts in that area.

In the meantime, commuters are advised to plan their journeys accordingly, considering the ongoing closure of the Zell bridge on the B45. It is essential to stay informed and follow any travel advisories or updates from the transportation department to ensure a smooth journey.

  1. Commuter might ask, "What about public-transit alternatives during the closure of the Zell bridge and the railway line?"
  2. Once the infrastructure operator allows the resumption of operations, the public-transit stations managed by Vias will provide an accessible option for finance and transportation needs, eliminating the need for transfers.
