S-Bahn Service in Hannover Restored After Week-Long Disruptions

A signal and track switch malfunction caused significant delays and cancellations, but normal operations have resumed.

The S-Bahn in Hannover faced major disruptions due to a signal and track switch issue near Linden-Fischerhof station, impacting multiple lines since last week.
Lines S21 and S51 were entirely suspended, while the S1 and S5 operated with limited service during the disruption.
Bus replacements were arranged for affected routes, particularly between Hannover-Linden/Fischerhof and Weetzen, to accommodate passengers.
The malfunction was resolved by Monday evening, with the operator, Transdev, confirming the return to normal schedules.
Ongoing construction at Linden-Fischerhof station may still cause localized service changes, though the broader network is now operational.
