Transport update and events: Bernau in midsummer crowd

In Bernau and the surrounding area, a high summer day with temperatures above 30 degrees is expected on Thursday. While people enjoy the sun, there is some important information about traffic changes and events that affect the region. The local authorities call for especially consideration of first graders who have to redesign their way to school.

Road traffic is particularly challenging at the start of school. The Barnim police will therefore take measures to ensure the safety of the children. This includes installing references and increased traffic monitoring. Tempo 30 applies to schools and kindergartens, while special controls are carried out at neuralgic points.

Current construction sites and traffic instructions

Another topic that committed commuters in the region are the construction sites. Particularly noteworthy is the construction site at the roundabout on the Börnicker Chaussee. A new top layer has been applied here since Tuesday, August 27th. A traffic light system regulates traffic, and it is recommended to use the diversion via the Schwanebecker Chaussee, as there have already been backlog, especially for vehicles that want to go to the Bahnhofs Passage. These construction work is expected to continue until the end of the week.

In addition, travelers on the railway line between Hamburg and Berlin will have to prepare for extensive construction work from August 16, 2024. In the coming months, more than 74 kilometers of tracks and 100 course will be blocked for renewal, which will lead to interruptions in train traffic.

The middle of the week also leads to changes in bus traffic. The Barnimer bus company adapted its timetables to the start of school. An overview of the changes can be found on the official pages of the Bbg.

• full closure of August-Bebel-Straße until September 13, 2024.
• closures on Börnicker Straße between Ulitzkastraße and Hussitenstraße until the end of August.
