Hungarian Transport Disrupted by Floods: Updated Bus and Train Timetables
Despite the ongoing flood situation in Hungary, public transportation services on the MÁV and Volánbusz networks remain operational, with some exceptions due to the flooding. One key exception is the Esztergom–Komárom railway line, where buses are currently replacing trains until the water recedes and repairs are completed.
Bus routes have been significantly affected by the flooding, especially with the closure of Route 11 between Tát and Esztergom. Many bus services are being rerouted, causing disruptions for passengers across the region. Additional changes are expected to be implemented from Wednesday, and passengers are advised to stay updated with the latest information from official channels.
The flood response priorities for the MÁV-Volán group include maintaining public transportation services, protecting transport infrastructure, and keeping passengers informed about travel conditions and expected changes. The Esztergom–Komárom railway line is undergoing flood defence efforts, with buses replacing trains and various measures being implemented to safeguard the tracks and bridges from the rising waters.
In Győr, technical interventions will be carried out to protect the Rába railway bridge, and the H5 suburban railway tunnel will be closed and reinforced to prevent flooding. Changes in train schedules and routes are expected in the coming days, with updates provided by MÁVINFORM.
The flooding has also impacted bus routes in Győr-Moson-Sopron and Komárom-Esztergom counties, with detours and closures affecting services along the Danube and in the Danube Bend region. Passengers are advised to check for route changes and closures, as well as alternative transportation options during this time.
For the latest news on the floods in Hungary and updates on public transportation services, passengers can refer to official announcements and sources. Stay informed to ensure smooth travel amidst the ongoing flood situation.
