Traveling by public transport to the World Ski Championships in Saalbach in February 2025 is highly recommended: A modern station with covered platforms is currently being built in Maishofen. This should enable comfortable travel. Now, however, a peeing posse is causing protest. The municipality is trying to find a solution. 

Four months to go until the state of emergency in Glemmtal. Around 15,000 fans are expected in the finish area alone for each race. Then there are the many volunteers. The appeal is insistent that as many World Cup visitors as possible should travel by public transport. In Maishofen, the old train station is finally history. A modern station is currently under construction. Cost: just under 20 million. The aim is to make travel "more comfortable".
