Construction site chaos in Neumünster: the intersection is closed until October!

The city of Neumünster is once again confronted with large construction sites that will shape the next few months. From June 17, 2025, a construction site belonging to Stadtwerke Neumünster (SWN) will be moving towards Holstenköste. This measure not only promises trouble for drivers, but also a comprehensive modernization of the district heating network. The Haart/Altonaer Straße intersection will be closed for several months, and the work is expected to last until the end of October 2025 CN reported. However, traffic between Plöner Straße and Großflecken and between Altonaer Straße and Wittorfer Straße remains possible.

At the same time, the construction site ensures that pedestrian and cyclist zones are closed. The construction work is part of a larger plan to convert the system from steam to heating water, which promises a sustainable improvement in the district heating supply, as well die-nachrichten.com explained. Those responsible have signposted detours so that pedestrians and cyclists can continue to move around, even if the Haart intersection remains closed until the second construction phase.

Additional construction sites in Neumünster

However, Neumünster is not only confronted with the construction site at the intersection of Haart and Altonaer Straße. Another construction site on Bachstrasse, which has already existed since April 7, 2025, will last until the end of June 2025. Here, car traffic between Beethovenstrasse and Mozartstrasse is completely closed, but pedestrians and cyclists are allowed to pass through the construction site. Residents were informed of the impacts. The parking lot at the city forest remains accessible during this time, which is important for many.

In addition, construction will begin on Holsatenring from May 12, 2025. Here the road at the level of the Mühlenhof is affected, which results in a narrowing of the lane.

Here, too, accessibility for the fire brigade and garbage collection is guaranteed, so that residents are not completely left in the lurch.

Stadtwerke Neumünster assures that the supply of district heating will be ensured throughout the entire construction period.
