Closure of the L 187: Renovation work between Freiburg and Menges starts!

On June 30, 2025, there will be a temporary closure on the state road (L 187) between Freiburg-Tiengen and the Schallstadt district of Menges. According to the Freiburg regional council, this measure is necessary in order to carry out an important renovation. The work, which is expected to last until July 21, is limited to an approximately 3.5 kilometer section that already shows significant damage in the form of cracks and spalling. To ensure the safety of workers and road users, the road must be completely closed during this time. Traffic will be rerouted via Freiburg-Munzingen, so residents in the region should prepare for some changes. RP reports that ....

Investments in infrastructure

The renovation work in Freiburg is part of a larger initiative that envisages a comprehensive investment package of around 600 million euros in transport infrastructure in North Rhine-Westphalia by 2025.

State of North Rhine-Westphalia emphasizes that ....

The program includes numerous individual measures that focus on maintaining and building new roads. It is important that the quality and speed of the work go hand in hand. Even minor damage should be addressed promptly in order to minimize future burdens.

Overall, it can be observed that the topic of transport infrastructure is highly relevant not only in Freiburg, but also in other regions of Germany. Citizens are called upon to inform themselves about the current construction work and, if necessary, to choose alternative routes to avoid possible delays.
