Service has been restored under the Chorzów overpass. The Metropolitan Transport Authority has announced numerous changes to public transport. The most important changes will take effect on June 9th and will affect 10 bus lines and 5 tram lines.

Most buses and trams that operated under the overpass before its closure will return to service stops in this area. Further changes will be implemented as further decisions regarding traffic management are made.

Bus service changes

The most important changes concern the routes and schedules of 10 bus lines: 190, 192, 632, 664, 830, 840, 840N, 998, M3, and T-9. Buses from these lines will once again operate under the overpass and serve stops in this area.

The implementation of these changes means that several stops will be restored: Chorzów Miasto PKP (01, 02), Chorzów Powstańców Szkoła (01), Chorzów Rynek (01), Chorzów Sobieskiego (01), and Chorzów Zjednoczenia (01). Additionally, two temporary stops located on Katowicka Street will be reopened, and service at 11 stops will be suspended.

Tram Service Changes

On June 9, lines 17 and 20 will return to the viaduct and their regular routes – these are the most important changes to tram service. The former will begin at the Chebzie terminus in Ruda Śląska, while the latter will begin at the Zawodzie depot in Katowice. In both cases, trams will terminate at the Market Square in Chorzów.

Other significant changes to tram service will affect lines 2 and 7, which will have new timetables, and line 40, which will be suspended.

For the two Dawid Podsiadło concerts, Transport GZM public transport will be expanded. Those traveling to the Superauto.pl Silesian Stadium on June 6th or 7th will be able to use additional trams. Disruptions will primarily affect bus traffic.

Tram improvements primarily

The Metropolitan Transport Authority, in cooperation with the concert organizer, MUZK, will provide additional public transport connections. Those traveling to the Superauto.pl Silesian Stadium will have more options for getting to and from the event. Trams are especially recommended.

In terms of tram traffic, the launch of line 0 on the Chorzów Silesian Stadium West Loop – Katowice Wolności Square route is worthy of special attention from concertgoers. Equally important news and a significant expansion of the offer will be additional services on four other lines: line 6 on the Brynów Transfer Center – Chorzów Silesian Stadium West Loop route, line 11 on the Chorzów Market Square – Zawodzie Depot route, line 15 on the Chorzów Silesian Stadium West Loop – Zagórze John Paul II Roundabout route, and line 19 on the Chorzów Metallurgical Museum – Stroszek Depot route. Trams will run with increased frequency on both June 6 and 7.

Bus service will also be enhanced, although not to the same extent as trams. This applies to line M3. After the concerts, buses on this line will run additional services on the Chorzów Metallurgical Museum – Tarnowskie Góry Station route. This will ensure travel between Chorzów, Bytom, and Tarnowskie Góry.

Buses with Detour Routes

Detour routes will be implemented on 15 bus routes: 6, 7, 7N, 23, 109, 663, 673, 674, 830, 840, 840N, 974, M3, M24, and T-9. The first changes will be effective from 2:00 PM on June 6th and 7th and will remain in effect until 1:00 AM on the nights of June 6th to 7th and from June 7th to 8th.

Additional Information

Detailed information regarding the implemented changes can be found on the GZM Transport website in the Announcements tab.

The section between the Market Square and the Roundabout in Katowice will once again be open to trams. This means that several tram lines can now return to their regular routes. The changes will take effect on May 30th and will affect 14 lines.

The completion of the investment means that previously operating tram services can be restored. The changes will affect 13 tram lines and one replacement bus line.

Restoration of Regular Routes and Suspension of Temporary Routes

In Katowice, following the reopening of the tram section between the Market Square and the Roundabout, regular routes will be restored for four tram lines. Tram line 6 will return to the Brynów CP – Chorzów Stadion Śląski Pętla Zachodni route, line 13 to the Chorzów Batory Depot – Siemianowice Skargi Square route, and line 16 to the Brynów CP – Wełnowiec Square route. Alfreda, and line 46 to the Brynów CP – Koszutka Słoneczna Pętla route.
Along with the return of the lines to their regular routes, the replacement bus line T-16 and temporary tram lines 33 and 43 will be suspended. Line 0 will also remain suspended.
New Timetables and Temporary Extension of Line 15 to the Stadium
The new timetables will apply to lines 11, 15, 23, 36, and 41, among others. With minor modifications, the timetables from before the closure of the section between the Roundabout and the Market Square in Katowice will be restored.
It is worth noting that previously, due to the opening of the viaduct on Piłsudskiego Street in Sosnowiec, line 15 was restored to its regular route. Now, due to track work in Szopienice and the resulting delays on the temporary single-track section, the timetable and route of this line will change again. From May 30th, the final stop will be Chorzów Stadion Śląski Pętla Zachodni. Trams will be able to park freely at this location, allowing them to join services without delay.
