Extreme heat causes rail delays across Austria, especially in Vorarlberg

Extreme heat is causing track deformations and significant delays across Austria's rail network. The issue, particularly affecting Vorarlberg, involves warped tracks and switches, forcing trains to slow down, leading to 5-10 minute delays. Passengers are advised to check schedules and allow extra travel time. ÖBB is implementing safety measures, including increased inspections and potential route closures, while Deutsche Bahn also urges travelers to postpone non-essential journeys due to widespread infrastructure problems.
