Bus Service Replaces Trains on Line U35 in Bochum
The maintenance work on University Street in Bochum is set to continue, causing traffic disruptions for motorists. Motorists should expect traffic disruptions due to the temporary reduction or narrowing of lanes on University Street.
In addition, passengers using the U35 train line will face significant restrictions throughout August. The maintenance work, scheduled to start on Wednesday, August 6, will last until August 27, 2025. The U35 line route will be divided into two phases, with the maintenance work taking place on University Street.
During the maintenance period, passengers on the U35 line can use lines 344 and 346 as replacement services. Bogestra recommends avoiding the construction area if possible.
From August 7 to 21, the U35 train line will operate only between Herne Schloss Strünkede and Ruhr-Universität. From August 22 to 26, the U35 line will end at the Gesundheitscampus stop. Buses will replace trains on the closed sections of the U35 line during the maintenance work.
The replacement buses will run during the same time period as the maintenance work on University Street (August 6 to August 27, 2025). Current timetables for the replacement services can be found online at www.bogestra.de or in the Mutti-App.
