Station will include a shopping mall which will open in December 2014. New office buildings are already under construction on the site of the old South station, and ÖBB will relocate its headquarters there in due course. The
housing area on the former freight yard will be developed step-by-step, and construction is expected to be completed around 2020. What are the benefits of Vienna’s new Main Station? ÖBB says that it will
reduce the need for passengers to change trains by enabling more through services to operate and it will make it much easier to connect between regional and long-distance services. This will also enable ÖBB to reduce operating costs as it will be able to use its rolling stock more productively. IRJ
