Auswirkungen des Hochwassers. Mittlerweile ist der Wasserspiegel im Wienfluss wieder stark zurückgegangen, im Lainzer Tiergarten gibt es immer wieder einen umgefallenen Baum und auch ein Strommast musste mit einem Drahtseil fixiert werden. Insgesamt dürften die Schäden zum Glück überschaubar sein.
Stärker betroffen ist nach wie vor die Westbahnstrecke der ÖBB. Vor allem der neue Bahnhof Tullnerfeld und auch neue Bahntunneln wurden unterspült und waren anscheinend nicht ausreichend hochwassergeschützt. Der Zugverkehr in den Westen ist daher im Moment sehr stark eingeschränkt. Spekuliert wird, dass die Reparaturarbeiten sogar Monate dauern könnten.
Flutschäden im Lainzer Tiergarten. Entwurzelte Bäume.
Aftermath of the flood. In the meantime, the water level in the Wien River has receded considerably, but there are still some fallen tree in the nearby Vienna forest. (Lainzer Tiergarten) and a power pole had to be fixed with a wire rope. All in all, the damage seems fortunately manageable.
The railroad line and train infrastructure is however much more severely affected. In particular, the new Tullnerfeld station and new railroad tunnels were flooded and were not sufficiently protected against the flooding. Train services to the west are therefore severely limited at the moment. It is speculated that the repair work could even take months.

It sucks to hear but natural disasters are like that. The government is generally slow and it doesn't take all the necessary procautions.
Hiking is really a great thing to actually engaged in sometimes
It is unfortunate to see the impact the floods have had, especially on the railway infrastructure, it's concerning that the repairs will take so long.
I hope the repairs progress quickly and that preventive measures are taken to avoid something similar in the future.
Let's hope the situation returns to normal as soon as possible.

We got hit with a hurricane back in July that led to a lot of flooding and broken infrastructure. So many downed trees and damage everywhere. I did a hike shortly afterwards like you and saw similar things. Hope everyone is ok!
the government should now focus on improving the drainage system to avoid this kind of flood.
Roads and railways damaged by flood should be repaired and normal life should be restored
I never knew flooding could cause falling of trees
I’m happy to learn that

The fallen trees shows how severe the flood was. Thank goodness everything is under control.
