Current traffic information for the Dahme-Spreewald and Oder-Spree districts: railway cancellations, construction work and diversions until July 2025.
Traffic chaos in the Dahme-Spreewald: Commuters beware!
The Dahme-Spreewald district is currently affected by traffic chaos, which poses major challenges for commuters and travelers. Several construction sites and technical breakdowns are causing significant restrictions on road and rail traffic. How maz-online.de reported, the effects are particularly serious.
The situation in rail traffic is extremely bad: between BER airport and Wünsdorf-Waldstadt there are failures on the RE8 until August 15th; Here replacement buses take over the transport between Schönefeld and Zossen. The situation is even more dramatic for RE2 and RE7, where there will be all-day cancellations until June 22nd and buses will also have to run as replacements. From June 20th to July 5th, all RB22 trains between Potsdam Central Station and Königs Wusterhausen will be canceled, forcing commuters to use alternative connections.
Traffic restrictions due to construction sites
But that's not all: there are also numerous construction sites and closures in the road infrastructure. The Databrief highlights that the S46 railway line will only have limited services for several weeks due to the demolition of the Ringbahn bridge in Berlin. Night trains on the RE2 and RE7 lines will be canceled on the nights of April 24th to 27th and May 22nd to 25th, causing further complications for commuters.
If we look at the road construction sites, we can expect the following restrictions: On the A117, the Treptow feeder road towards the A113 will probably be closed until the end of June, while the driveway from Hans-Grade-Allee in Schönefeld-Nord will not be accessible until August. In the district itself, the district road between Gröditsch and Pretschen, the L401 in Eichwalde and the section of road in Kablow-Ziegelei are completely closed until October.
Commuters beware!
Given this situation, it is advisable for commuters to check schedule information regularly to avoid unpleasant surprises. Because as we all know, dealing with rush hour traffic together can quickly turn into a nightmare. The ongoing work and traffic disruptions should not be underestimated and require good timing to get to your destination.
In conclusion, it can be said that the current traffic problems in the Dahme-Spreewald district are not only caused by construction sites, but also by technical difficulties. The Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure emphasizes the importance of transport infrastructure and its continuous maintenance in its standard work “Traffic in Numbers”, which represents a compendium of the traffic situation in Germany over 50 years. bmv.de notes that this remains of central importance for mobility in Germany.
Commuters and travelers are well advised to keep an eye on the situation and find out about alternative routes and transport options in good time. With a little planning you might be able to avoid the traffic fog a few meters better.
