Public transport disruptions in Saxony and Saxony-Anhalt

Overview

Infrastructure maintenance and track construction projects are causing significant disruptions to public transport in Leipzig and Halle during October and November 2026.

In Leipzig, major works at Augustusplatz and the main station (Hauptbahnhof) involve renewing track junctions and ongoing maintenance. These projects result in tram service interruptions between Roßplatz and Augustusplatz, diversions for multiple tram lines, and closures affecting tracks at the main station. Additionally, maintenance at the Paunsdorf tram station requires rail replacement services.

In Halle, track construction will lead to the full closure of the tram line between Marktplatz and Franckeplatz from October 26 to October 30. This closure necessitates diversions for several tram and bus lines, with specific adjustments made to nighttime connections and collection points.
