MÁV-group railway maintenance and bus replacements

Overview

The MÁV-group has announced several railway maintenance projects in Hungary that will necessitate the use of replacement buses on specific routes.

On the Hatvan-Szolnok line, replacement services will operate in two phases: between Hatvan and Jászberény from October 9 to 15, and between Jászberény and Újszász from October 16 to 18. The maintenance involves track regulation, replacing over 300 sleepers, and swapping switches in Jászberény to eliminate speed restrictions.

Additionally, replacement buses will run between Tapolca and Balatonfüred from October 12 to 15. This work includes replacing rails, rebuilding tracks, and replenishing ballast on sections between Badacsonytomaj and Badacsonytördemic-Szigliget, Zánka-Köveskál and Révfülöp, and Révfülöp and Badacsonytomaj.
