From July 26 to August 1, Prague’s Masaryk Station will be completely closed to allow the Railway Administration to activate new signaling systems as part of ongoing modernization efforts.

During this time, trains will be rerouted to other stations, primarily the Main Station (Praha hlavní nádraží).

Travelers planning trips in late July should check updated schedules carefully, as no trains will serve Masaryk Station throughout the week.

“The Railway Administration is continuing its modernization work, and the activation of the new signaling equipment will begin on Saturday, July 26. Train service is expected to resume on the evening of August 1, alongside the reopening of the upgraded section between Bubny and Výstaviště,” said Nela Eberl Friebová, the Railway Administration’s spokesperson.

Meanwhile, extensive construction is underway at Masaryk Station itself. A new platform is being built above the tracks, and new covered platforms for tracks 8 and 9 near Na Florenci Street are under development.

These platforms are scheduled to open to passengers by mid-December, improving the station’s capacity and comfort.

The Main Station will also see temporary closures during the first weekend of August. On August 2 and 3, maintenance work will take place, leading to adjusted schedules for several regional and long-distance Czech Railways lines.
