Affalterbach construction site: Traffic chaos will soon be over!
The residents and commuters in Affalterbach can breathe a sigh of relief: the construction site on Winnender Straße (L1127) will be completed earlier than planned. On Wednesday, June 18th, the partial closure will be lifted and the through town can be used again in both directions. This not only means relief for traffic, but also for the already heavily used bus traffic and trucks that previously had to take detours. The pressure on road traffic during the construction work could not be overlooked and caused traffic jams and dissatisfaction among those affected for many weeks Stuttgart News reported.
In recent weeks there have been frequent traffic disruptions caused by the renovation work on the drainage channels on Winnender Strasse. The municipalities and the district office reacted to the situation and revised the traffic routing. These new regulations for bus traffic and car travel are particularly aimed at ensuring that the connection between the Birkhau and Wolfsölden districts to school bus and regular services continues to be secured, explains Ludwigsburg district.

- Lkw-Verkehr muss weiterhin großräumige Umleitungen fahren, da innerörtliche Umleitungen nicht möglich sind.
- Die Halteverbote in der Lange Straße und dem Bittenfelder Weg bleiben jedoch bestehen.
- Die Umleitung für Lkw führt ab Erdmannhausen und Marbach über Poppenweiler, Hochdorf und Bittenfeld.
