Track closure between Mittelherwigsdorf and Zittau
31. 7. 2025
Emergency closure of the rail line between Mittelherwigsdorf and Zittau from July 28 until further notice!
- Rail service has been completely suspended along the entire L7 line (Žitava – Varnsdorf – Seifhennersdorf), and replacement bus service has been implemented.
- On the RE2 and RB61 lines, trains are not running on the Zittau–Ebersbach (Sachs) section and have been replaced by substitute bus service.
Due to two unrelated service suspensions, the replacement service is provided by separate routes, and in Zittau (or nd Hrádek nad Nisou), passengers must transfer between buses to/from Liberec and buses to/from Varnsdorf/Ebersbach.
The reason for this emergency is the deteriorated condition of the bridge near the Mittelherwigsdorf stop.
