Construction work in Munich: Tram traffic affected, replacement buses on the go!
München, Deutschland - On June 1, 2025, the Munich Verkehrsbetriebe (MVG) faces significant challenges due to upcoming construction work, which will start on June 2. These measures affect tram traffic by August 2025. In order to minimize the effects on passengers, replacement buses are used on many tram lines and some lines are redirected, such as tz.de reports .
The affected tram lines include line 16, which will only run between Roman Square and Sendlinger Tor in the future, while Tram 17 takes over the company between Sendlinger Tor and Isartor. Replacement buses replace the connection between the Isartor and Effnerplatz. Tram lines 19, 21 and 27 are also affected by diversions and restrictions. Passengers are encouraged to inform themselves about diversions and replacement traffic on the special page mvg.de/trambauextensive construction work in the urban area
According to the MVG construction site program, which was presented for 2025, the focus is on renovation measures of the subway. Managing Director Ingo Wortmann appealed to the Federal Government to ensure the long -term financing of the infrastructure, while criticism of the Free State of Bavaria also became loud due to a lack of investment. Furthermore, numerous technical renovations are planned, including the exchange of 41 soft, 13 km of power rails and 10.7 km driving rails, such as Tramreport.de noted .
Another important aspect of the construction work is the renovation of 35 subway stations until 2030, starting with Karlsplatz (Stachus) in 2025. The track renewal on the Maxmonument and the exchange of the track triangle at the Nordbad are also planned. Replacement buses will be available during these construction phases, and metrobus lines 56 and 63 are to be reinforced in order to cope with the increased need in passenger volume.

The Stadtwerke Munich (SWM) play a central role in local public services. They secure the energy and water supply in the region and are responsible for numerous construction measures that can often lead to traffic restrictions. The important tasks of the SWM include the expansion of renewable energies, the development of holistic mobility solutions and the development of new fiber optic lines. This information can also be viewed on the service card of the state capital Munich, as swm-infrastructure.de explains .
passengers are asked to regularly inform themselves about current information regarding the construction sites and diversions on the platforms mentioned in order to avoid inconvenience during the construction period.
