  • Train disruptions will last throughout the weekend

    Several train companies affected by the signal failure in Jutland have announced plans to reduce service for the rest of the weekend. According to Banedanmark, reports Ritzau, Nordjyske Jernbaner, Midtjyske Jernbaner, and GoCollective will operate with hourly trains through Sunday, meaning that only one train per hour will run on the affected routes.

    These disruptions impact key connections, including trains from Aarhus to Struer, Aarhus to Viborg, and Esbjerg to Varde. The signal issue caused major disruptions to train traffic across much of Jutland on Thursday, and as of Friday morning, Banedanmark has not yet determined the cause of the failure.

  • Massive outage disrupts TDC mobile services, trains affected

    TDC, Denmark’s largest telecommunications provider, faced widespread service disruptions, leaving thousands of customers unable to make calls, including to emergency services at 112. The issue appeared to stem from a software update implemented on Wednesday, which went awry, according to TDC Communications Manager Lasse Bjerre Sørensen. While the exact cause is still under investigation, Sørensen assured TV2 that the company is reviewing its procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

    The outage had significant consequences. Funen Police deployed all available patrol cars to the streets, advising residents to approach officers directly if unable to reach police by phone. Officials recommended that people use phones from providers other than TDC or remove their SIM cards to call 112, as phones can connect to emergency services without a SIM card.

    For customers with internet access, alternative communication methods like FaceTime and Facebook Messenger were suggested to maintain contact.

    TDC, which provides mobile, internet, and TV services across Denmark, fixed the problem yesterday night.

    Another consequence was that rains in large parts of Jutland were suspended. The affected lines include Esbjerg-Holstebro, Vejle-Struer, and Aarhus-Aalborg, among others.

    The suspension impacts passengers across North, Central, and South Jutland.

    These problems were still present this morning, affecting students and people going to work.


  • Train Traffic Disrupted Across Jutland

    Trains in large parts of Jutland have been suspended following issues with Banedanmark’s digital signaling system. The affected lines include Esbjerg-Holstebro, Vejle-Struer, and Aarhus-Aalborg, among others. Services are expected to resume by 6 PM, according to Banedanmark.

    The disruption highlights challenges in Denmark’s transition from analog to digital signaling, a project aimed at nationwide implementation by 2033. Once complete, Denmark will be the first country to fully adopt digital systems for rail operations.

    The suspension impacts passengers across North, Central, and South Jutland. Travelers are advised to check for updates on alternative transport options.
