repair of the K 9033: Effects on the residents and traffic in Löwenhain

From August 5, 2024, Löwenhain is expecting a comprehensive road construction measure that will affect both the transport infrastructure and the residents. The district of Saxon Switzerland-Osterzgebirge has commissioned the renewal of the third construction phase of the K 9033, which extends over a distance of 1,000 meters and is to be completed by September 6, 2024.

reasons for the renovation

The need for this construction measure results from considerable damage to the lane ceiling, which was caused by cracks, marginal breakdowns and numerous patchbones. In addition, faults can be determined due to tree roots. In order to ensure traffic safety, the existing ceilings are milled, tree stumps and roots are removed and a partial lining out in the substructure. These comprehensive work is crucial for the preservation of the street and the safety of road users.

financing and scope of the work

The costs for the repair amount to around 340,000 euros and are financed by the district from the repair flat rate of the Free State of Saxony and from own funds. Eurovia Verkehrsbau Union GmbH from Dresden was commissioned to carry out the work. Interestingly, this measure is also financed with tax funds that are provided on the basis of the household of the Saxon state parliament.

traffic impairments and diversions

During the construction work, the K 9033 is completely blocked, which will lead to significant impairments for traffic. A detour is generously signposted and leads over the locations of Lauenstein and Geising. Road users should prepare for longer travel times, especially residents and commuters. Löwenhain will continue to head to the RVSO, but a bypass from the Oberdorf via Fürstenau will be necessary, which means that the “Löwenhain School (Fire Brigade)” stop is no longer served. This information is crucial for the residents to design alternative travel plans.

conclusion: a necessary measure for a safe environment

Overall, the repair of the K 9033 is an important step to improve road conditions in the region. Even if the full blocking and the detours bring inconvenience, the measure ultimately contributes to increasing traffic safety. For the residents and road users in Löwenhain, it is therefore advisable to adjust to the changes at an early stage and to plan the requested detour to minimize possible delays.
