Nuremberg extends U-Bahn line U3 to Gebersdorf

Nuremberg's fully automated U3 metro line is being extended by about 2.1 kilometres from Großreuth bei Schweinau, via the new intermediate station Kleinreuth bei Schweinau, to the new terminus Gebersdorf, including a crossing under the Main-Danube Canal. Shell construction is finished; track and third-rail installation plus station and depot fit-out are underway, with test operations planned from late 2026. Total cost is about EUR 204.7 million (EUR ~110.1 million funded by the federal government and Bavaria); the opening has slipped from an earlier mid-2027 target to the end of 2027.
