Wachtberg: A lot of traffic in Villip because of work on Wachtbergring

At the moment there is a significant increase in traffic in Villip, a district of Wachtberg. The background is the ongoing construction sites at Wachtbergring (Kreisstraße 58), where extensive work is carried out to repair the roadway. The old asphalt surfaces are removed and the rain drainage is also renewed. According to district spokesman Antonius Nolden, this work is well on schedule.

The construction site not only brings construction site vehicles and workers, but also ensures that traffic is ripple. Since the connection between Pecher Landstrasse and Berkum is currently closed, many vehicles, including heavy trucks, flock through the town center of Villip. A traffic light regulation was introduced for the traffic between the industrial area in Villip and Gimmersdorf, which partially enables the traffic flow.

The diversion route for traffic stipulates that vehicles are managed via the L 158 to Bad Godesberg and then via the B 9 and other streets to Berkum. This means that even local drivers rely on alternative routes. However, these diversions do not apply to all vehicles, since some streets cannot be accessed due to structural changes for heavy goods traffic.

In addition, there is now progress in the laying of fiber optic cables in Villip for a long time. Paving work is carried out in several places, which makes the Situation even more complicated. It should be noted that the obvious damage to the street can be identified directly, including a network of cracks that has already led to structural problems.

The construction work on the Wachtbergring are part of a more comprehensive plan to improve the transport infrastructure in the region, including accessibility for residents and local public transport. Fire brigade, emergency services and public transport were informed about the current closures to ensure smooth operational activity and mobility in the surrounding community. Pedestrians and cyclists also have to reschedule to avoid the construction sites, which already caused discussions on social media.
