As part of the railway line development between Szeged-Rendező and the Röszke (190 km southeast of Budapest) border, more than 13 kilometers of the track and its surroundings have been renewed.

Freight trains have been running on the section since August last year, and passenger traffic resumed on Tuesday.

The journey time between Szeged and Subotica is roughly one and a half hours, including the border police checks.
