Station construction at Ruhr-Universität in Bochum
Ruhr University train station and University Street will experience some changes and disruptions in the coming weeks due to separate projects.
Firstly, construction work at the Ruhr University train station is scheduled to begin on August 20, 2025, and is expected to continue until August 29, 2025. This work is focused on repairing damage caused by corrosion on the roof and removing glass panels above the tracks. The repair work does not involve any other infrastructure or facilities apart from the roof and glass panels.
Motorists should expect delays due to the construction work on University Street, as it will be reduced to two lanes in both directions during the construction. The work is aimed at repairing damage caused by corrosion on the roof.
In a separate development, the U35 subway line will only run to the Health Campus station from August 22 to 26, 2025. Buses will replace service in the closed sections of the line during this period. Passengers can use lines 344 and 346 as alternatives, which will be temporarily reinforced with additional vehicles.
It is important to note that the U35 subway line closure does not affect the construction work at the Ruhr University train station. Similarly, the new station at the Ruhr University train station, a separate project, is not affected by the subway line restrictions or the repair work.
Plans for the new train station at Ruhr University are already underway, with DB InfraGO AG, the entity managing the infrastructure related to the Rhein-Ruhr Express project, taking on the planning responsibility.
The construction work at the Ruhr University train station is a separate project from the repair work currently being carried out. Therefore, the new station project is not related to any previously mentioned events or projects.
It is advisable for motorists to plan their journeys accordingly, taking into account the potential delays due to the construction work on University Street and the subway line closure. The new station at the Ruhr University train station is an exciting development that will improve transportation in the area, but for now, it is the construction work and subway line closure that will impact the daily commute.
