Overview

  • The Kargow–Waren (Müritz) section of the Rostock–Berlin corridor will be fully closed for the entire month of July to rebuild two parallel 1972-era bridges on Bundesstraße 192.
  • Simultaneous track superstructure upgrades between Birkenwerder and Oranienburg will run through August 1 to enhance line reliability.
  • Early signs of damage on the aging bridges necessitated a full shutdown rather than partial closures for safety reasons.
  • An Ersatzverkehr with buses will operate between Neustrelitz Hauptbahnhof and Waren (Müritz), and through travelers must reroute via Stralsund or Schwerin.
  • Deutsche Bahn expects all construction and upgrades to be completed by August 1, when normal train services will resume.
