In Bernau, repair work on unpaved roads to remove potholes will begin on October 1st and 8th, 2025.

Autumn road repairs: Bernau fights against potholes!
Major repair work is currently underway in the city of Bernau. From the 40th calendar week, unpaved residential roads will be brought into shape. It starts on Am Wasserturm street in Ladeburg, followed by further measures on Kavelweg in Schönow and Plutostraße in Bernau-Süd. The work is urgently needed to eliminate the many potholes caused by the frequent use of the so-called “sand roads”. Marco Haupt, an employee in the civil engineering department, announces that the measures should be completed within about two weeks if the weather is good and asks residents for their understanding of possible restrictions during this time. Loud barnim-aktuell.de Autumn road pushing includes ripping, profiling and rolling the potholes. A bit of sustainability is also important: excess material is used for filling, and where necessary, natural stone gravel is used.
But that's not all: on Monday, October 8th, work will also be done in the settlement streets of Nibelungen. The work starts on Brunhildstrasse and affects a total of nine other streets, including Etzelstrasse, Gudrunstrasse and Hildebrandstrasse. Here, too, attention is being paid to the complete removal of the potholes, and the city administration once again asks residents for their understanding of the upcoming restrictions during this repair work, as local reporting from bernau-live.de reported.
Why this is important
The maintenance and repair of roads is a key concern that goes beyond the safety of road users. Like from strassen.nrw.de As explained above, work to maintain the traffic infrastructure not only leads to an increase in traffic safety, but also to ensuring a functional and contemporary streetscape. It is important here that residents and those behind the road tolerate necessary measures in an emergency in order to ensure the quality of the roads in the long term.
In Bernau there are only a few unpaved roads left, which are not suitable for comprehensive road maintenance due to their special topography. The current work is therefore a step that is of great importance for many residents. You could say it's about more than just patching up holes: it's about a good quality of life.
Mainka Street Entertainment GmbH from Hennickendorf was entrusted with carrying out this work and has already made a name for itself in the region. It remains to be hoped that the weather conditions cooperate so that the work can be completed quickly and efficiently.
