Construction work in the west of Vienna: Line 43 is redirected!

In Vienna, there are extensive track work in Vienna from mid -June, which will affect tram lines 43 and 9 in particular. The work on Jörgerstrasse is necessary to bring the infrastructure to the fore and will continue until September. During this time, line 43, which otherwise runs between Neuwaldegg and Elterleinplatz, is diverted from Elterleinplatz via the track of line 9 to Gersthof. This has an impact on many daily commuters and passengers.

The detour takes place to effectively pass the vehicles past the construction sites. The passengers who want to go to the city center can conveniently switch to line 42 at the Kreuzgasse stop, which offers a practical alternative route. It should be mentioned in particular that the stops of lines 42 and 43 on Vinzenzgasse are strategically placed, so that the switching options can be optimally used - including the U6.

Details on the construction phase and timetable adjustments

Anyone who uses line 9 should also note that they only run between Westbahnhof and Rosensteingasse during the construction work. This shortfall could lead to detours for some passengers, so it is advisable to find out well in advance. The tram lines 2 and 44, on the other hand, will drive their usual route, but with increased intervals, to intercept the potential rush of passengers.

The Viennese lines have already provided comprehensive information on the current construction sites on the website Wiener Linien. Here passengers can find all current updates to timber changes and diversions.

Overall, this construction phase is another step towards a modern and powerful transport infrastructure in Vienna. Everyone involved is encouraged to pay attention to the current information and, if necessary, to consider alternative routes in order to make their paths as smoothly as possible.

Like the local press OE24 and ORF Vienna) report such construction measures are a necessary investment in the future of the city and underpin the continuous effort for improved public transport links.
