Reopening not until December 13, 2026
The reopening of the Zurich HB SZU train station has been postponed until the timetable change on Sunday, December 13, 2026. The line between Zurich HB and Zurich Selnau will therefore remain closed through Saturday, December 12, 2026. The reason for the delayed reopening is a series of setbacks in the construction process. An earlier full or partial reopening was thoroughly examined but is not possible. Various systems necessary for rail operations and related to safety can only be completed, inspected, and tested after the major structural work has been finished. The existing alternative plan will largely remain in place until the reopening. SZU is informing passengers well in advance about the changes and recommends checking the desired connection in the online schedule at www.zvv.ch before traveling. SZU and the participating companies deeply regret the delay and apologize to passengers for the additional inconveniences.
