DRAMMEN, February 10, 2026 – Commuters traveling between Drammen and Stokke, Norway, should brace for disruptions as railway work kicks off this weekend. The changes, while temporary, will impact travel plans for several weeks.
Work to Impact Train Schedules for Over a Month
Ongoing maintenance will require bus replacements for train service along the Drammen to Stokke route.
- Work is scheduled to take place between Drammen and Stokke.
- The project begins on Sunday, February 15th.
- Disruptions are expected through Friday, March 27th.
- VY is providing bus service as an alternative to trains during the work period.
The railway work will be underway from Sunday, February 15th, and continue through Friday, March 27th. During this period, train service will be replaced by bus transportation between Drammen and Stokke. This means passengers should anticipate longer travel times and potential crowding during peak hours.
The work will occur between the hours of 01:00 and 05:00 each day. VY, the train operator, has proactively arranged for bus replacements to minimize inconvenience to travelers. Passengers are encouraged to check the VY website or app for the most up-to-date schedule information and potential delays.
Planning Your Trip
Travelers affected by these changes should allow extra time for their journeys. The bus replacements, while reliable, will naturally take longer than the direct train service. Consider alternative routes or travel times if possible to avoid potential congestion.
Impact on Commuters
The disruption will likely impact daily commuters and those traveling for leisure. While VY is working to mitigate the inconvenience, passengers should remain prepared for potential delays and plan accordingly. Staying informed about the schedule changes is crucial for a smoother travel experience.
