Half-way closure of Werner-von-Siemens-Straße in Amberg on November 12th.

Half-way closure of Werner-von-Siemens-Straße in Amberg on November 12th.

Next Tuesday, November 12, 2025, half of Werner-von-Siemens-Straße in Amberg will be closed between Georg-Hilbenz-Straße and the roundabout. This measure is necessary in order to be able to safely unload and install ventilation units using a crane. The closure begins at 7 a.m. and will last until 6 p.m., as oberpfalzecho.de reports.

There will be various diversions for road users during this time. Traffic heading towards the roundabout will be directed past the construction site. Drivers who want to drive in the direction of Siemens must take Köferinger Straße, Liebengrabenweg and Georg-Hilbenz-Straße. A postal adventure! This could cost some people time, but safety comes first.

Pedestrian traffic redirected

Pedestrians also have to adapt to changes. The diversion takes place at the zebra crossing at the roundabout and at the traffic lights at the intersection of Georg-Hilbenz-Straße/Werner-von-Siemens-Straße. Here, pedestrians are directed to the opposite side of the sidewalk to comply with safety regulations. So keep an eye out for the signs and stay safe on your feet!

This type of traffic control is crucial in order to be able to carry out the work efficiently and quickly. Many Amberg residents are likely to benefit from this construction project, especially in the cold season when fresh ventilation equipment is urgently needed.

The large construction site and its significance

The renovation work on Werner-von-Siemens-Straße is part of a larger initiative that was launched in the Amberg region to improve the infrastructure. Such work is important to improve the quality of life of residents and to guarantee modern standards. Especially in today's world, it is essential that public institutions and businesses can keep up with constant developments. And that doesn't work without good organization and planning.

We look forward to reporting on progress in the next few days and hope everything goes smoothly. However, please plan your journeys accordingly and obey the traffic signs. It is in all of our interests to make everyday life as pleasant as possible!
