Major construction site on Kurt-Romstöck-Ring: traffic chaos until October 2026!

Major construction site on Kurt-Romstöck-Ring: traffic chaos until October 2026!

From November 27th, the Kurt-Romstöck-Ring in Neumarkt will once again become a major construction site. According to the current information from mittelbayerische.de The work is expected to last until October 30, 2026. The construction work is part of an extensive road construction offensive to make the city's infrastructure future-proof.

In the third construction phase, one lane in each direction on Kurt-Romstöck-Ring will remain accessible. Traffic will be redirected to the side of the road that has already been completed. Access to the construction site remains free for residents. However, Freystädter Straße between the Mistelbacher Allee car park and the Obi intersection will be completely closed. These measures are necessary to advance construction work and improve the traffic situation in the long term.

Detours and traffic measures

The diversion will take place largely via the B 299, i.e. via the Münchner Ring and the Berliner Ring. Road users who know the area are asked to avoid the affected area to avoid delays. Pedestrians and cyclists should also prepare for the new conditions: They will be redirected via Johann-Donauer-Straße, Volksfestplatz and Mistelbacher Allee.

The importance of these and similar construction measures should not be underestimated. The federal government has embarked on a massive investment package for transport infrastructure. Under the motto “Everything that is ready for construction will be built”, over 169 billion euros are planned for transport projects by 2029, which corresponds to an increase of over 25 percent compared to previous years federalgovernment.de reported.

This initiative is intended not only to ensure the preservation of existing transport routes, but also to promote new projects. Over 30 billion euros will enable additional investments from 2025 to 2029, including the renovation of bridges and the modernization of road and rail networks.

The goal: a functioning infrastructure for everyone

Citizens in Germany have a right to functioning public infrastructure. It is therefore important that everyone involved is patient during this extensive construction work. While the roadworks are being carried out in the Kurt-Romstöck-Ring, both drivers and pedestrians have the chance to contribute to improving their surroundings by using alternative routes and taking an active part in the discussion about urban development.

The comprehensive construction measures fit into the context of a nationwide infrastructure program. In Neumarkt too, the focus will be on a sustainable transport policy. We can only hope that these investments bear fruit and that, with good hands and clever planning, the roads will soon be usable again.
