Flooring exhibition Domotex is to provide a bus service from Frankfurt to Hannover in the face a German train strike.
The German train drivers’ union GDL has called a strike from Wednesday until Friday, which will see ‘massive disruption’ according to Deutsche Bahn, which is urging people not to travel.
Domotex has arranged the buses to allow visitors at Heimtextil – which this year has a dedicated flooring hall – to get to the show.
The journey will take at least four hours, compared to just under three hours by train.
Buses will leave from Frankfurt station to Hannover station at 3pm on 10 January; at 9am from Frankfurt station to Domotex and 3pm to Hannover station on 11 January and at 9am from Frankfurt station to Domotex on 12 January.
Domotex runs from 11-14 January.
