What is causing the train disruption?
During a routine inspection of the Øresund Bridge railway, deficiencies were identified that require reduced speed on the railway connection. Safety is the top priority for the Øresund Bridge, which is why trains are currently operating at reduced speeds while measures are being implemented to minimize disruptions.
What is the Øresund Bridge doing about the problem?
Most of the deficiencies have already been addressed. The Øresund Bridge is now working to resolve the remaining issues as quickly as possible. The main focus is to restore normal train operations as soon as possible. In the meantime, the goal is to reduce the impact on traffic while the final issues are being resolved.
Is there an estimate for when train services will return to normal?
The track work towards Sweden on the bridge has been completed. The replacement of expansion joints towards Denmark is expected to be completed by Sunday night.

How traffic will be affected during Broloppet 2025
Broloppet 2025 is one of the highlights of the 25th anniversary of the Øresund Bridge when 40,000 runners will run from Denmark to Sweden.
Øresundsbron advises against all unnecessary travel across the bridge between 06-17 on June 15. Train and road users are advised to travel at other times - and those who must drive to allow extra time for the journey across the bridge.
