Construction site chaos in Cologne: road users have to prove patience!

Construction site chaos in Cologne: road users have to prove patience!

The city of Cologne will be facing a real Herculean task in the coming weeks: drivers have to expect detours and delays, since several intensified construction measures restrict the traffic routes. A central point of the construction sites is the Severinsbrücke, which is examined as part of the regular main examination by the city of Cologne. This takes place every six years and requires a temporary blocking for car traffic, as TAG24 reports. Next Sunday, June 8th and June 15th, the bridge will have to be closed to traffic from 6 a.m. to 8 p.m. The diversions are well signposted on site.

Another important construction project takes place at the intersection Humboldtstraße/Königsberger Straße in Cologne-Ail. The traffic lights have been renewed here since mid -May and the work should be completed by July 21. During the construction period, a portable traffic light system regulates traffic. The new signaling technology is not only equipped with LED, but also offers acoustic signals and elements for visually impaired people, which increases the safety of all road users.

New traffic area in Nippes and Dünnwald

in Nippes, Escher Straße/on the picture sticks have been rebuilt since June 4. This creates new over -the -way, lane divisors and protective strips for cyclists so that all road users can safely move. The completion of this project will be sought for early November 2025.

also on the Zeisbuschweg/Birkenweg in Dünnwald. A new roundabout is being built here. The construction work started on June 2 and are carried out in several sections under a full closure. The work is expected to be completed by April 2026, which will ensure better traffic routing in this area.

For all Cologne teams and commuters, it is important to regularly find out about the current construction sites. The latest information is available in Cologne's traffic calendar, which serves as a central source of information for all traffic disruptions. In the long run, these measures improve the infrastructure in Cologne, even if short -term traffic can be challenging.
