Traffic chaos in Göttingen: construction sites are causing massive disruption!
In Göttingen, drivers will have to face a number of diversions and construction sites in the coming days, which will cause a lot of traffic bottlenecks. The Heinrich-Albert-Zachariä-Bogen will be closed from Friday, August 15th until August 20th. The northern section between house numbers 8 and 20 is affected, with the street being set up as a dead end in both access areas. The reason for the restrictions is roadway and gutter renovation work, which also affects the Friedhof Junkerberg bus stop, for which a replacement stop is being set up. HNA reports that such measures are necessary to keep the road infrastructure in good condition.
But that's not all. The road in Robert-Bosch-Breite will be completely closed from Monday, August 18th to September 26th. Here the full closure affects the section between Adolf-Hoyer-Straße and Gotthelf-Leimbach-Straße. A diversion leads via August-Spindler-Straße, Elliehäuser Weg and Wilhelm-Lambrecht-Straße. Lines 71 and 72 of the Göttinger Verkehrsbetriebe (GöVB) also have to prepare for diversions, which could pose an additional challenge for commuters.
Events and other closures
On Saturday, August 16th, the Albaniplatz car park will be closed from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m. The reason for this is the celebration of Christopher Street Day, an important event in the city that always attracts large numbers of visitors. Here too, increased traffic volumes and difficulties in finding a parking space are to be expected.
In addition, the intersection of Grüner Weg and Philipp-Reis-Straße will be closed until Tuesday, September 30th. The northern area of Philipp-Reis-Straße and the western section of Grüner Weg street will also be set up as a dead end. A diversion via the Hannoversche is signposted and drivers should take note of this in order to keep traffic running as smoothly as possible.
Information and planning
To ensure that residents and commuters are well informed, we recommend the website HNA to consult where you can find all relevant information about the construction sites in Göttingen. The city administration asks for your understanding for the inconvenience associated with the renovation work. Ultimately, these are necessary to maintain road safety and keep the roads in good condition for all users.
For visitors and residents in Göttingen, it's time to keep your eyes open and re-plan: whether shopping, in rush hour traffic or going to events - with a little patience and careful use of the detours, everyone should be able to navigate the autumn construction site easily.
