NMBS will cancel trains between Ghent and Bruges in the coming weekends

Passengers can use replacement buses. The capacity of main railway line 50A will be increased, which should also benefit freight transport. A new switch complex will be built in Oostkamp and signaling works have to be carried out around Aalter. Infrastructure works are also required elsewhere and in the run-up to the summer there will therefore be no trains between Ghent and Bruges for five weekends.

Direct line via detour

With a valid ticket, passengers can use buses. They stop in Bruges, Oostkamp, ​​Beernem, Maria-Aalter, Aalter, Bellem, Hansbeke, Landegem, Drongen and Gent-Sint-Pieters. Those who travel directly between Bruges and Gent-Sint-Pieters can take an IC train, which is diverted via Lichtervelde with an extra travel time of 20 minutes.
