Arriva Faces Disruptions: Changes to Public Transport Schedule
Significant Changes in Arriva Train Schedule
Arriva is implementing cuts to its train services starting next week in Zuid-Limburg. This adjustment comes amidst challenges such as illness, staff shortages, and limited rolling stock, along with the impact of freight transport on available resources.
Service Adjustments Effective September 16
The changes commence on September 16 and are expected to last until at least November.
- Buses Replace Trains on Heuvelland Line
- Train Frequency Reduced to Once Per Hour
- Continued Operations for Stoptrein and Drieland Train
On the Heuvellandline between Heerlen and Maastricht, trains will operate only once per hour instead of twice. Passengers are being redirected to bus services, with travel times for these buses reported to be under thirty minutes, consistent with the express train. Notably, the buses will bypass both Valkenburg and Meerssen.
Meanwhile, the stoptrein is set to continue as per the usual schedule, ensuring transport remains available for passengers.
