Weekend Travel Alert: Major Tram and Metro Disruptions in Prague

Heading to Prague’s city center this weekend? Brace yourself for significant public transportation interruptions.

Starting Thursday, October 24th, and running through Monday, October 28th, some tram and metro services will be disrupted due to scheduled line repairs. Key sections will be temporarily closed, leading to rerouted services and the introduction of replacement buses.

Tram Disruptions: Key Routes Affected

National Theatre to Jiráskovo náměstí

From Thursday, October 24th, through Monday, October 28th, tram service between the National Theatre and Jiráskovo náměstí will be halted in both directions. This is due to ongoing repairs on the Masaryk Embankment tram line. Trams on lines 17 and 28 will be diverted via Národní třída and Myslíkova stops. The Prague Public Transport Company (DPP) will not provide replacement bus services in this area, so passengers should seek alternative routes.

Dělnická to Nádraží Holešovice and Ke Stírce

Further disruptions will impact tram lines 1, 17, 25, and 93 between Dělnická, Nádraží Holešovice, and Ke Stírce. Service on these lines will be interrupted briefly from the night of Thursday, October 24th, to Friday, October 25th. Replacement bus services will be available for affected passengers during this time.

Metro Service Disruptions: Line C Closures

Muzeum to Kačerov Section

Metro passengers using line C should also prepare for service suspensions from Saturday, October 26th, to Monday, October 28th. Track repairs will close the section between Muzeum and Kačerov, and passengers will need to rely on replacement bus service XC, which will operate between Hlavní nádraží, Muzeum, I.P. Pavlova, Vyšehrad, Pražského povstání, Pankrác, Budějovická, and Kačerov.

In addition, for passengers using bus lines 189 and 215, the Kačerov boarding stop will be temporarily relocated. Bus lines 138 and 193 heading towards Nemocnice Krč will also see their stops moved to the head of platform 106 at Kačerov station.
