Renovation work in Niehl: Restrictions from November 3rd!

There will soon be major renovation work in Cologne-Niehl: from November 3rd to 12th, a combined sewer on Amsterdamer Strasse and Friedrich-Karl-Strasse will be renovated. A good reason to prepare for a temporary construction site that takes place on weekdays between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. The work is carried out using a trenchless construction method, which means that traffic is only maintained in one lane during the work. For drivers, this means that one lane will be lost, but there will still be no significant restrictions on rush-hour traffic. [Rheinische Anzeigeblatt] reports that this measure ensures the functionality of the sewer network and promotes environmental protection.

Those responsible at StEB Cologne, who inspect and maintain the sewers, emphasize that the work on Amsterdamer Straße between Pohlmannstraße and Friedrich-Karl-Straße is being carried out using this special construction method for structural reasons. Proper functioning of the canal is crucial not only for the residents but also for the entire surrounding area. In addition, care is taken to ensure that access for the fire brigade and rescue services is always guaranteed, so that a quick response can be made even in emergencies. Residents will also receive direct mail to inform them of the upcoming changes. [StEB Cologne] emphasizes that understanding should be shown for possible disruptions on construction site days.

Cooperation for environmental protection

The renovation is being carried out in cooperation with the Office for Roads and Cycle Paths of the City of Cologne, which ensures that all work is carried out in a safe and environmentally friendly manner. The planning and preparations are extensive in order to reduce possible disruptions to the process and at the same time minimize disruption to traffic.

Although green construction sites are often perceived as an annoying side effect of urban life, their aim is to sustainably improve the infrastructure. Residents and passers-by are urged to be patient during the construction work and to pay attention to the adjustments in traffic flow.

Overall, it is emphasized that this measure is essential for ensuring the functioning wastewater infrastructure in Cologne-Niehl. Ultimately, it not only serves environmental protection, but also the everyday lives of citizens who rely on reliable drainage systems. Stay tuned for further updates on the construction work and its progress!
