Signal fault forces full train halt between Asker and Drammen
A signal malfunction has halted all train traffic on the Drammen line between Asker and Drammen, with no timeline for resumption.
All rail operations between Asker and Drammen have been stopped after a signal fault was detected on the Drammenbanen. Bane Nor's press contact, Rebekka Bredesen, said the organization has no forecast for when trains will run again and cannot confirm the impact on Tuesday morning traffic. The interruption could affect a range of lines such as the F5 Oslo-Stavanger, F4 Oslo-Bergen, RE10 Drammen-Lillehammer, R12 Kongsberg-Eidsvoll, R13 Drammen-Dal, RE11 Skien-Eidsvoll and the airport express FLY1. No further details on alternative transport were provided.
Why it matters
Commuters and travelers rely on these routes, so the outage may cause widespread delays and require alternative transport plans.
