Bus stop in Harburg - The process of tearing down the bus station has commenced, with bus stop locations being shifted accordingly.
The razing of Hamburg-Harburg's Central Omnisbus Bus Station (ZOB) kicked off on Monday. Slated to replace the 1980s facility is a cutting-edge bus station with a vastly increased capacity, as shared by Hamburg Hochbahn. This modern structure is set to commence operations in early summer 2026. For the time being, commuters will need to switch at the Harburg-Rathaus S-Bahn station. Almost all bus lines will converge at this spontaneous connecting point. Only line 153 heads straight to Wilhelmsburg. The Hamburg S-Bahn, railway firm Metronom, in conjunction with bus operators KVG and VHH, will enlighten passengers about these detours and the new temporary crossing point.
The erstwhile Harburg bus station catered to some 40,000 daily commuters, stated Hochbahn. Throughout the busiest intervals, there were over 150 buses coming and going per hour. At this transit center, one could seamlessly shift between 25 bus lines throughout the day and night, as well as S-Bahn lines S3 and S5, and regional and intercity transportation. The brand-new complex is poised to be highly functional, with the length of the departure sections stretching from 163 to 283 meters. During the two-year construction period, a bus station has been established on the east side of the tracks at Harburg-Großmoordamm station.
