Even though the very big subway construction site was mastered during the summer holidays, there are still isolated construction works to be done on the Frankfurt subway network. VGF will continue its maintenance work on the subway and tram network until the end of 2019, with the focus now on the tram network after the subway summer construction site. Track construction in Niederrad was completed between 12 and 23 August. For background on the associated track greening, see the August 22 VGF blog post "The track is blooming" at https://blog.vgf-ffm.de/das-gleis-erblueht/
