"In order to improve the condition of our roads, we have to put up with roadworks and road closures, unfortunately there is no other way. For our busiest roads, we also only have small windows of time each year that we want to use efficiently. As a result, we have a lot planned for the summer. Our colleagues on site are doing everything they can to keep the restrictions as low as possible," comments Kai-Uwe Hirschheide, First City Councillor and City Planning Officer.

During the plant vacations: Heinrich-Nordhoff-Straße and Braunschweiger Straße are being renovated

This summer, we are tackling the second construction phase on several streets where we already renovated the first last year. With Heinrich-Nordhoff-Straße - out of town, northern carriageway, between the junctions with Saarstraße and Lessingstraße - and Braunschweiger Straße - out of town, between the junctions with Siemensstraße and Röntgenstraße - this is the case on two central traffic axes. However, both roads will remain open and traffic will be routed in one lane on the other side of the road. In both cases, construction will take place during the plant vacations from July 7 to August 1.

In addition, the Willy-Brandt-Platz road will be completely closed in sections from June 10 to 20. We will announce the corresponding restrictions and detour in good time. A new asphalt surface course will also be laid on Schillerstraße. Between July 11 and 21, both directions of traffic between the junction with Heinrich-Heine-Straße and the junction / traffic lights at Schillerpassage are expected to be repaired. This will require a full road closure and the corresponding detour is currently being coordinated.
