Routes to the stadium
Light rail lines U45, U42 and U46
The most important light rail line in the direction of Signal Iduna Park is the U45 (Fredenbaum - Hbf - Westfalenhallen), which runs between the stops "Hauptbahnhof" and "Stadion" at least every five minutes from around three hours before the start of the match and up to 90 minutes after the end of the match.
As in previous seasons, football fans at the main station will be directed to the platform via the north entrance in order to better regulate access to the light rail station. DSW21 asks all passengers, including those not travelling in the direction of the stadium, for their understanding of this regulation, which is intended to prevent overcrowding of the platform and the associated entrance and thus a dangerous situation.
Signal Iduna Park is also easy to reach with the light rail lines U42 (Grevel - Schulte-Rödding - Reinoldikirche - Theodor-Fliedner-Heim - Hombruch) and U46 (Brunnenstraße/Brügmannplatz - Reinoldikirche - Westfalenhallen). The nearest stops to Signal Iduna Park are "Theodor-Fliedner-Heim" (U42) and "Westfalenhallen" (U46).
Uni-Shuttle, bus routes 450, 452 and 448
The university shuttle will run again between the university and the "Theodor-Fliedner-Heim" stop. Bus route 450 between Kirchhörde and Westfalenhallen will be significantly reinforced with additional vehicles. There will also be two additional buses on route 453 ("Löschteich-E-Wagen") from Westfalenhallen to Schüren/Aplerbeck and an additional E-Wagen on route 448 from Barop car park in the direction of Kruckel.
You can expect a high volume of traffic in the city centre at the weekend. If you are travelling by car, we recommend that you park your car in one of the P+R car parks and take the train to the city centre.

Did you know?
From the Schultenhof bus stop in the south, it only takes 30 minutes to walk to the stadium, 2.4 kilometres of forest and footpaths for a relaxed stroll.
The trams run more frequently until 90 minutes after the end of the match, but still every 15 - 20 minutes thereafter (until 11.30 pm).
Dortmund Central Station is also only 3 kilometres away from the stadium (Lindemannstraße), a distance that can easily be covered on foot (in 30 - 40 minutes). Here you can also see a short biography of Michael Zorc on the wall of the building on the corner of Lindemannstraße and Stübbenstraße (behind the ARAL).
