The roughly 86 km railway line between Ulm and Augsburg is slated for a full renovation under Deutsche Bahn's general-renovation program for high-performance corridors: overhead lines, tracks, switches and signal boxes will be replaced, stations modernized, noise protection improved, and digital train operation introduced. The planned roughly five-month full closure was originally scheduled for 2030 but has since been postponed to 2034 as part of a nationwide rescheduling of the renovation program; as of spring 2025 financing had not yet been fully secured.
