Clocks go back on Sunday as Czechia returns to standard time

Summer time ends this Sunday as Central European Time resumes. At 03:00 the clocks will move back to 02:00, making the night an hour longer. Long-distance night trains and buses will wait one hour at stations to match the new timetable; Czech Railways, Leo Express and RegioJet all have services affected. Winter time will remain in place until the last Sunday of March. An EU plan to scrap seasonal clock changes stalled after states failed to agree which time to keep year-round. Road-safety expert Roman Budský of Platforma VIZE 0 warns earlier dusk increases risks for drivers, pedestrians and cyclists.
