The Sarmiento train service in Argentina will cease operations between the stations of Once and Moreno over the weekend due to essential maintenance work aimed at upgrading the signaling system. This decision follows announcements from Trenes Argentinos as part of the Railway Emergency declared by the national government. The maintenance is expected to enhance safety and efficiency in train operations, particularly between the Villa Luro and Liniers segments.

In addition to the weekend shutdown, the train service is set to run with limitations from Haedo to Moreno on Monday 16 and Tuesday 17 until 6 PM. The interruptions are necessitated by mandatory electrical supply shutdowns that affect the general tracks, rendering the usual train functionality impossible. The maintenance tasks include installing new trunk cables for the signaling system and relocating tracks to modernize the railway infrastructure between Haedo and Castelar.

These developments not only impact the daily commuting routine of passengers but also highlight the government's commitment to improving railway systems amid the declared emergency. Operations will be closely monitored as the railway improvements strive to enhance travel safety and reduce potential delays once the renovations are completed. Additionally, ongoing works are planned for underpass constructions at specific intersections, further indicating a comprehensive strategy for long-term infrastructure advancement in the region.
