Alterations to works on the Drammen Line
The Norwegian National Rail Administration (Jernbaneverket) is cancelling the works at Drammen Station during the period 22 June - 17 July. The works had meant that there would be a restriction to two tracks at Drammen and extensive use of buses as rail-replacement services. NSB is now working to ensure that as many of the train services as possible will run as normal during this period.
There is frustration at NSB that the works notified for this summer at Drammen Station have been postponed. This means that they will now have to be done at a later date and that improvements for NSB's customers will have to wait. NSB has been working for a number of months to ensure the best possible service for our customers during this period and the arrangements now have to be altered at short notice. The change in plans was notified to NSB on 10 June and will involve substantial extra costs for us, for which we will seeking reimbursement from the Norwegian National Rail Administration.
At NSB, we are doing everything we can to provide our customers with the best possible rail service during this period, in spite of the limited planning time available. Separate timetables will be available on nsb.no for the different lines.
The planned works between Drammen and Oslo S in the period 17 July - 3 August will be completed as scheduled.

NSB Regiontog inter-city service on the Bergen Line
All trains on the Bergen Line will be running on their normal route from Oslo S via Drammen and Hønefoss to Bergen. Due to the planned works, the train departing from Oslo S at 10.33 and arriving at Bergen at 17.52 was to have been delayed and depart at 10.49. Tickets were printed with this new time.

Customers on NSB Regiontog inter-city services on the Bergen Line from Lysaker, Asker, Drammen, Hokksund and Vikersund will travel by train at the train's normal departure time and not by bus as stated on the ticket.
