S-Bahn failure in Oschatz: Replacement buses provide punctual arrival!

Stötteritz, Deutschland - On July 15 and 16, 2025, commuters between Oschatz and Wurzen have to expect significant restrictions in S-Bahn traffic. Due to maintenance work, the early S-Bahn trams fail on this route. Instead, replacement buses are provided that bring passengers to the respective trains of the S-Bahn line 3. This is reported by the Leipziger Volkszeitung.

The buses take up their business at Oschatzer Bahnhofs forecourt: the first departures are at 3:37 a.m. and 4.05 a.m. In Dahlen, the buses are ready at 3.51 a.m. and 4.19 a.m. These buses reach the S-Bahn trains that run in the plan, which run in Wurzen at 4.22 a.m. and 4.50 a.m. For many commuters, these changes will be a challenge because they have to adjust to the newly established connections.

In addition to the failures on July 15 and 16, changes to the S-Bahn connections must also be observed on July 26th.

The arrival of the bus in Oschatz is planned for 1,07 a.m. and 2:08 a.m., while the bus should arrive in Dahlen at 0.53 a.m. and 1.54 a.m.

For passengers who want to travel to Borsdorf from Leipzig, there are also changes: On the night of July 21, the last trains of the regional express will not be held in Borsdorf at 10 p.m. and 11:08 p.m. These passengers can fall back on a replacement bus from Engelsdorf.
