Rail traffic on the Olten - Basel SBB line was interrupted between Olten and Tecknau on Friday morning. According to SBB, this was due to a points fault. The affected route is one of the busiest for commuter traffic.
According to SBB, the restriction will last until at least 9 am. Travelers between Basel and Arth-Goldau, Bellinzona, Lugano and Milano Centrale should travel via Zurich main station. Rail replacement buses are also in operation. Nevertheless, travelers should expect delays and cancellations.
In itself, a points fault is not a big deal. However, on this route in the morning on a working day, such a disruption has a major impact. After all, thousands of commuters travel on the affected section.
