Frankfurt / Main (dpa / lhe) – A broken switch causes disruptions in the S-Bahn traffic in the Rhine-Main area. A spokesman for Deutsche Bahn said on Tuesday that there was a switch fault in the area of ????the Frankfurt underground station, which led to partial failures. The switch has been broken since Tuesday night, technicians are on site. It is unclear how long the repairs will take.
The Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV) announced that there were delays in the entire S-Bahn network, and trains were also canceled. In addition, there was a signal fault in Dietzenbach. The railway recommended passengers to inform themselves on the Internet and to pay attention to the loudspeaker announcements on the platform and in the train.
There were also problems due to a lack of staff. The Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund (RMV) reported partial cancellations and delays for the S8 and S9 due to understaffing of the Mainz-Bischofsheim signal box. Hessenschau.de had previously reported about it.
