(July - September 2026)

Important Travel Notice: Construction Works at Berliner Platz

Please be aware that extensive construction works are taking place on the Ruhrbahn network from July 4, 2026, to September 1, 2026. These works primarily affect the U-Bahn level at Berliner Platz and the tracks of lines U11 and U17.

Traveling to the University of Essen (End of August): If you are arriving at Essen Hbf (Central Station) and traveling to the conference venue at the University ("Universität" station), please note the following:

  • U-Bahn Restrictions: Due to the construction, the U11 and U17 lines are subject to restrictions. You will likely need to use Bus Replacement Services (SEV) instead of the train for this route.
  • Alternatives: Take the tramways 101 or 103 to Berliner Platz or Rheinischer Platz, as described here on the right  side of this page.

For the most up-to-date schedules and route planning, please visit the official SEV map: https://sev.ruhrbahn.de/(Note: This site is available in German only).
