Wien Hauptbahnhof

railway station in Vienna, Austria, located in the Favoriten district.[10]

Wien Hauptbahnhof has replaced the

North, East, West and South. The new station offers significantly improved, principally international, connectivity.[2] By moving the main access to Südtiroler Platz, the new station is better connected to the Vienna U-Bahn system, and is also accessible by Vienna S-Bahn, tram and bus lines.[12] The Südtiroler Platz S-Bahn station was renamed Wien Hauptbahnhof (platforms 1 and 2) in December 2012.[8]

Timeframe

The city council agreed to build the station 15 December 2006. Construction began in June 2007, starting with preliminary works such as the remodelling of the S-Bahn station Südtiroler Platz. In 2008, the S-Bahn and the U-Bahn stations at Südtiroler Platz were connected with each other and Südbahnhof was demolished.

In 2009, ÖBB Infrastruktur awarded a €220m construction contract to a consortium led by Strabag.[13]

The bulk of Südbahnhof's services (platforms 11-19) were closed with the timetable change of 13 December 2009, with Wien Meidling railway station temporarily taking over many of Südbahnhof's services.[14] Construction started in April 2010.[15]

Trains began passing through the new Hauptbahhof without stopping, 6 August 2012.[6] The station became partly operational in December 2012,[1] with regional and S-Bahn services using platforms 9-12 and long-distance trains not stopping.[8] It was expected that the Hauptbahnhof would fully open in December 2014, however delays in completing a footbridge meant it would not be fully operational until December 2015.[4][8]

The rebuilt station has around 100 shops and restaurants as well as 600 car parking spaces.[13] Office and residential developments are currently being built.
