Circumvesuviana Naples-Baiano, line partially reactivated

After a long wait the reactivation of the Circumvesuviana line Naples-Baiano was not, of course, free from problems. After months of summer interruption, the train service restarted, but commuters had to deal with delays up to 50 minutes.

Discontent was immediately felt, with commuters' committees asking for an urgent meeting with theEAV, calling the situation “disastrous”. The main problem remains linked to the works at the Naples Directional Center, which require changes to the route.

The new route of the Baiano Line

Since the work is not completed, and will not be for many years, the route has not yet returned to normal due to the three-year works in progress at the Naples Directional Center, managed by the Municipality.

For this reason, the route includes an alternative itinerary that passes through the stations of Baiano, Volla, San Giorgio a Cremano and finally Napoli, which makes a need for a change of train for those who need to reach the Campania capital from the province.

In fact, precisely to try to limit the inconveniences, EAV has set up a system of change train at the station San Giorgio a Cremano for those travelling from Baiano a Napoli. Here passengers can continue towards the Campania capital by boarding trains coming from poggiomarino o Torre Annunziata.
In addition, some events have been scheduled bus rides at the beginning and end of the day, which run the entire route without requiring changes. Replacement services also remain active, with buses connecting the stations that are still closed, such as Nola-Naples e Pomigliano d'Arco - Naples.

I delays and protests by commuters

Despite the services put in place and the reopening of the line, commuters have still suffered significant hardshipsDelays were significant, with some trips accumulating up to 50 minutes of delay. The reaction of the commuters' committees was not long in coming: they asked for a urgent meeting with theEAV to discuss the problems and find immediate solutions, defining the restart of the service "un disastrous start".
The main requests concern the need for an organizational plan that can reduce the inconvenience in the coming months.

Baiano Line Forecasts for 2026

The works currently in progress at the Naples Directional Center They are part of a three-year project, and the company has assured that measures will be taken to improve the service in the meantime, but Commuters ask for faster interventions and solutions to avoid further inconvenience in the coming months.
