Construction work in Bavaria: S-Bahn night timetable affected!

Construction work in Bavaria: S-Bahn night timetable affected!

This is causing a stir in the Bavarian transport world: In the nights from October 27th to 31st, 2025, there will be timetable changes on Deutsche Bahn's main route. This necessary construction work begins at 10:20 p.m. and ends at 5:00 a.m. The S-Bahn connections between Pasing, Laim, Hirschgarten and Donnersbergerbrücke are particularly affected, where replacement buses are used. Many commuters and travelers should prepare well to avoid any unpleasant surprises.

The changes to the timetable primarily affect the S-Bahn lines. For example, the S 3 and S 8 run from Donnersbergerbrücke in the direction of Holzkirchen and the airport. The S 2 and S 1 are also affected. While the trains towards Erding start and end at the Hackerbrücke, the trains to Petershausen and Altomünster run as scheduled from Heimeranplatz platform 11. For everyone who regularly commutes between Pasing and Geltendorf, it should be noted that the S 4 ends in Pasing. Details about the different timetables can be found on the website [news.de].

Details about replacement transport

The information about the alternative stops is particularly important. The replacement stop is at Hirschgarten in the direction of Donnersbergerbrücke on Landsberger Straße. This measure is intended to ensure that travelers continue to have connectivity during construction work. If you still have questions, you can find out about current construction sites and timetable changes on the Munich S-Bahn website.

An important innovation is the regulation in the event of delays: If these are at least 20 minutes, passengers are also allowed to travel on other routes as long as there is no reservation requirement. A practical relief for all those commuters who often rely on the S-Bahn.

A look beyond the borders of Bavaria

A quick look outside the box shows that changes are also underway elsewhere in Germany. From August 2025, the Hamburg-Berlin route will be completely closed for a full nine months, which will also involve extensive diversions and a replacement service consisting of up to 180 buses. Up to 86,000 kilometers are covered every day. It is also worth taking a closer look at the Hamburg-Bremen information for travelers on this connection. These have been viewable on various platforms since February and provide an overview map of the new bus routes.

To enable comprehensive reporting, various sources of information are available. On bahn.de there is current information on train cancellations and route interruptions, as well as a train radar for real-time data and notifications in the event of delays. These services offer travelers valuable assistance and enable them to plan their trips well.

In the coming days, anyone who relies on the S-Bahn in Munich or the rail connections between Hamburg and Berlin should find out about the changes in good time in order to get to their destination stress-free. Looking forward to the coming trips – and a good hand in planning!
