Newly built section of line 18
"Frankfurter Bogen"
Work began with the groundbreaking ceremony at the current final stop "Gravensteiner Platz" on March 23, 2009, test operations began on the line in mid-November and the line was officially opened on December 11 to coincide with the timetable change!
Eight mobility-friendly stops have been built along the 3.5 kilometer long new line. Line 18 runs every 10 minutes from Frankfurter Bogen via Friedberger Landstrasse, Konstablerwache, Börneplatz and Allerheiligentor to Lokalbahnhof. On Saturdays, it continues to Oberrad every half hour. For around 13,000 passengers, this connection of the northern districts of the city thus offers a fast and convenient connection to the city center and to Sachsenhausen.
