During the Second World War, the tramway suffered considerable damage to the fleet and the track network.
By 1 October 1946, the tram network, except for some minor sections, was back in operation.
Among other things, the route to the Venusberg was not resumed since this district was occupied by the Allied forces.

On 28 August 1949, the section between Koblenzer Straße and Gronau was converted to bus operation.
By this time, Federal Government was anxious to make it sure that cars could move freely in the government administrative district without having to take trams into consideration.

After the Rhine bridge at Beuel was restored on 12 November 1949, tram service there resumes.
