Train traffic between Norrköping and Nyköping will be completely closed for ten days starting March 28, 2026, according to transportation authorities. The closure, which runs from March 28 at 00:45 until April 6 at 14:00, is due to ongoing construction at Nyköping's travel center.
During this period, trains will be replaced by buses with stops in Norrköping, Kolmården, Nyköping, and Vagnhärad. Travelers between Nyköping and Stockholm will experience approximately 20 minutes of additional travel time due to the need to transfer between trains and buses in Vagnhärad.

Kataringa Myrberg, press spokesperson for Mälardalstrafik, explained the situation: "Since you need to change from train to bus and vice versa in Vagnhärad." Train service between Vagnhärad and Stockholm Central will operate normally during the closure period.
In addition to the construction work in Nyköping, the Swedish Transport Administration (Trafikverket) will also replace tracks at Kolmården station during this time, aiming to make the railway section more reliable. The extended closure during Easter week 2026 is expected to affect numerous commuters and travelers in the region.
