Northern line (southern section)
In the southern section between Vienna Süßenbrunn and Gänserndorf, a turning facility will be built and the rail infrastructure modernised so that a higher speed of up to 160 km/h can be operated in the future.

North-western line
As in the south, the platforms in the stations from Unterretzbach to Vienna Brünnerstraße will be extended to 220 metres on the north-western line. This means that longer regional trains will also be able to travel to Unterretzbach in the future.
Southern line
In order to make the new, modern and above all longer trains available to the thousands of commuters between Vienna and Payerbach-Reichenau, we are extending the platforms in the stations from Guntramsdorf-Thallern to Payerbach-Reichenau to 220 metres.
In addition, a new stabling facility will be built in Payerbach-Reichenau.
The access to Wiener Neustadt will be extended to four tracks and the Pottendorfer line will be integrated.
Core line "Floridsdorf-Meidling
At the centre of the S-Bahn Vienna Upgrade is the renewal of the so-called "S-Bahn Wien Stammstrecke". It runs between Vienna Meidling and Vienna Floridsdorf.
Bridges, viaducts, retaining walls, tunnels and tracks have to be renewed, platforms extended. The use of longer and more modern trains creates space for more passengers and greater comfort.
A modern, digital train control system enables tighter and more punctual intervals and increases the reliability of the entire system.
