Due to maintenance work in the area of the Münchner Freiheit subway station, the Munich Transport Company (MVG) has to temporarily interrupt the subway lines U3 and U6. There will be restrictions on four nights from 10:30 p.m. until the start of operations the following day – between Monday, September 9th and Thursday, September 12th.
The U3 is interrupted and runs every ten minutes in the sections Fürstenried West – Sendlinger Tor and Moosach – Scheidplatz. In the Sendlinger Tor – Scheidplatz area there is an alternative connection with the U2. The U6 is also interrupted and runs every ten minutes in the sections Klinikum Großhadern – Universität and Garching Forschungszentrum – Dietlindenstraße.
Only one shuttle train runs between Münchner Freiheit and Scheidplatz every ten minutes. A replacement bus service serves the underground stations Odeonsplatz, Universität, Giselastraße (via the Georgenstraße and Hohenzollernstraße stops), Münchner Freiheit and Dietlindenstraße every five minutes.
In addition, the municipal utility company (SWM) is replacing two switches on the tram bypass route on Kirchenstrasse after 15 years of operation. For this reason, the MVG must replace tram 37 with buses and divert several tram lines in the area around Max-Weber-Platz from this Monday, September 9th, until Sunday, October 13th.
Tram 37 will be replaced by rail replacement service (SEV) 37 on the Max-Weber-Platz – Effnerplatz section. Tram 17 will run all day on the Effnerplatz – St. Emmeram section. The latter will be extended from its current terminus at Sendlinger Tor and will run all day on the route of tram 16 via Lehel to St. Emmeram. Tram 16 will only serve the Romanplatz – Sendlinger Tor section.
Tram 21 will be diverted out of town towards St.-Veit-Straße between Max-Weber-Platz and Haidenauplatz via the Flurstraße and Grillparzerstraße stops. The Wörthstraße and Ostbahnhof stops can only be served towards the city center. Tram 25 will be diverted out of town towards Großhesseloher Brücke/Grünwald between Max-Weber-Platz and Wörthstraße via the Flurstraße and Grillparzerstraße – Haidenauplatz – Ostbahnhof stops.
The night tram N17 can only run on the Amalienburgstraße – Sendlinger Tor section. In the Sendlinger Tor – Effnerplatz section, buses replace the tram. The night tram N19 is diverted out of town in the direction of St.-Veit-Straße between Max-Weber-Platz and Haidenauplatz via the Flurstraße – Grillparzerstraße stops. The Wörthstraße and Ostbahnhof stops can only be served in the direction of the city.
