Cur­rent Cov­id Rules in Pub­lic Trans­port

According to the current Covid regulations, masks are still mandatory in all buses and trains in Germany (medical mask, FFP2, KN95, N95). If you don’t wear it, you might be fined up to 150€. In addition, all passengers are asked to observe the hygiene rules and the minimum distance as far as possible. Please also pay attention to signs and announcements at airports, train stations, and all tansport means concerning those regulations.

Travel & Ven­ue

There will be railroad maintenance between Hamm and Kassel. This will most likely lead to major scheduling changes or the cancellation of trains. However, busses will be provided to account for cancelled or rescheduled trains.

From August 6th – August 19th, busses will substitute trains between Hamm and Soest, as well as between Warburg and Kassel.

From August 20th there will be busses substituting trains between Hamm and Soest. Therefore, the RB89 only runs between Münster and Hamm, and Soest and Warburg. 

From Friday, July 15th onwards, IC-Trains for line Köln – Düsseldorf – Dortmund – Hamm – Paderborn – Kassel.W. – Erfurt – Gera are cancelled.

It might make sense to go to Bielefeld or Hannover first and then take a train from there to Paderborn. This might be a detour for participants coming from the East or the South. However, this might save you trouble with the substitution busses.

From Paderborn Main Station you can take the Line 4 and Line 9 busses to get to the "Uni Südring" stop. The busses run every quarter of an hour.

Information on the 9-Euro Ticket:

In Germany, since June 1st, it is possible to use all buses and trains in public local and regional transport all over Germany for nine euros a month. This offer is valid for the calendar months of June, July, and August and can be used without limitation of the number of journeys. However, long-distance trains (e.g., IC, EC, ICE as well as Flix trains and long-distance buses) are excluded. In addition, the 9-Euro ticket is only valid for second class. 

It can be easily booked via the website of Deutsche Bahn (https://www.bahn.com/en/offers/regional/9-euro-ticket-en) or at vending machines and counters. The ticket is an initiative of the German government as part of the energy relief package and is intended to compensate the increased energy and fuel prices for citizens and thus offers an economical way to travel around Germany in an environmentally friendly way. Cancellation (exchange or refund), however, is excluded. Due to the high demand there may also be overcrowded trains and delays. This should be included in your travel planning. Therefore, when deciding on the ticket, it is advisable to keep an eye on current information about the trains and to check the departure times.

As the 9-Euro ticket covers all public local transport systems in Germany you may also use it for the public busses in Paderborn.

The conference will take place inside the university’s L-Building. The address is Pohlweg 57, 33098 Paderborn. You will find a car park on the opposite side of the road from the conference building on Pohlweg.

There is a full road closure on Bahnhofstraße in Paderborn. You will not be able to access the city centre via the exit “Paderborn-Zentrum”. You can, however, use the exit “B64 Höxter / Universität”.

After you arrive at Paderborn-Lippstadt Airport (PAD) (Flughafenstraße 33, 33142 Büren), you can take the bus S60 to get to Paderborn Main Station (“Paderborn Hauptbahnhof”). The bus departs once per hour and the ride takes about 25 minutes. The first bus leaves at 06:19am and the last one at 09:49pm. On Sundays, the bus leaves every two hours between 11:19am and 07:19pm. You can find the bus stop just outside of Arrivals to your left. It is a big green pole.

From Hannover Airport (HAJ), you can take the S5 to Paderborn Main Station. The last train usually departs at 08:38pm.

When arriving in Kassel (KSF), we would advise to go from Kassel-Wilhelmshöhe to Hannover and from there to Paderborn as described above. This will be a detour, but it might save you some trouble with substitution busses. 

When arriving in Frankfurt (FRA), you can go from Frankfurt Regionalbahnhof to Frankfurt Fernbahnhof and take the train to Essen. From there on out you can take the RE11 directly to Paderborn.

From Düsseldorf Airport (DUS), you can take the train to Hamm, from Hamm to Bielefeld, and from Bielefeld to Paderborn in order to go around maintenance issues.

The conference will be hosted by Paderborn University and will take place in the univerity's L-Building (Universität Paderborn - Gebäude LFanny-Nathan-Straße, 33098 Paderborn or Pohlweg 57, 33098 Paderborn). 

From Paderborn Main Station you can take the Line 4 and Line 9 busses to get to the "Uni Südring" stop. The busses run every quarter of an hour.

When you reach "Uni Südring" stop and leave the bus, you have to go down the stairs on the left. To get to the other side of the street, go left through the underpass. Then turn left again and follow the street straight to the L-Building, where the conference will take place. For a location map of the bus stop and L-Building click here.

To get to the cafeteria, you have to walk down the street in front of the main entrance of the L-Building. At the first opportunity, you go left and then straight until you are in the courtyard of the university. There you can walk up the stairs and enter the building through the main entrance. Once in the building, you go slightly to the left (through a glass tunnel) and up the stairs to the cafeteria. Here you can find the path marked in the map of the university.

Make sure to have a look at the map of relevant conference locations to the right.
