affected by rail traffic
Massive effects are also expected on rail traffic. All train connections via Deutsches Eck are affected. A shuttle service will be arranged every two hours. Trips can take up to three hours longer. Trains to and from Germany will be shortened or cancelled.
No strikes at Easter
According to the German rail union EVG, after the big traffic strike next Monday, train passengers in Germany need not fear a rail strike at Easter. “Since we want to hit employers and not travelers with strikes, we will not be negotiating around the Easter break,” EVG said, according to Sunday’s image. “This means that holiday strikes can be ruled out for all travellers.”
