A fault has been discovered on the west coast line between Helsingborg and Lund and, at this time, Skånetrafiken trains are unable to operate the section.
Replacement buses have been deployed during the day.
According to the Swedish Transport Administration, work to solve the problem will continue overnight for several weeks.
– It is incredibly sad that we are forced to cancel train traffic on the west coast line on such short notice, but naturally we support the decision made by the Swedish Transport Administration to reduce speed on the route, he says Ulf Welin, Skånetrafiken’s acting traffic director in a press release.
The information is available on the website and in the app.
“The Swedish Transport Administration has discovered a number of faults on the West Coast Line track, which means that the speed must be reduced to 70 km / h for safety reasons. In total, it is a distance of just over seven kilometers where errors must be rectified, ”writes the Swedish Transport Administration on its website.
The error can affect traffic for several weeks.
“The work will take place at night, for several weeks. In addition to commuter train traffic in Skåne, train traffic on the West Coast Line between Malmö and Gothenburg is affected. Passengers are encouraged to contact their train company for more information on traffic, “writes the Swedish Transport Administration.
According to the press service, SJ runs the route between Malmö and Gothenburg as usual, but there will be delays of around 30 minutes on our high-speed trains between Malmö and Gothenburg.
