Due to the extraordinary flood event, which caused extensive restrictions and stopped traffic operation on the territory of the Czech Republic and the railway network of Správa železnic, we are asking you to initiate the ICM process.
At this moment line Hranice na Moravě – Ostrava – Bohumín – Dětmarovice is closed for all traffic.
The networks of PKP PLK, ŽSR and ÖBB are also affected by this event. It is currently impossible to estimate how long will the impact on the network remain critical.
Affected border lines at this moment:
- Bohumín-Vrbice – Chalupki
- Bohumín os.n. – Chalupki
- Petrovice u Karviné – Zebrzydowice
- Mosty u Jablunkova – Čadca
Unfortunately, at the moment there is no option for the implementation of diversion trains. Only the border crossing Děčín – Bad Schandau would be considered for the traffic to/from Poland, but it is affected by extensive TCRs and it is not possible to reroute trains to it. For the traffic to/from Slovakia borders Horní Lideč – Lúky pod Makytou and Lanžhot – Kúty are still available but some restrictions might appear here soon because of flooding.
