Planned traffic changes

Maintenance and improvement work on the railways in the Stockholm-Mälardalen region may result in parts of the railway network being fully or partially closed during different periods. Here, we list the major track works that will affect Mälartåg's train traffic in the future

The railways in Stockholm-Mälardalen are continuously being maintained and improved. This means that parts of the railway network periodically need to be completely, or partially shut down.

The information about planned track work is preliminary, exactly how the trains will run during this time is determined in more detail closer to that period. 

Search your trip in the app Mälardalstrafik and on Mälardalstrafik.se to see the updated timetable.

Please note that travel time may be longer than usual when trains are replaced by buses.
