Construction site chaos in Schwerin: Summer holidays bring closures and traffic jams!

Schwerin, Deutschland - The summer vacation not only brings relaxation, but also numerous construction sites in Schwerin and the surrounding area. From Saturday, July 19, various important traffic measures will take effect that will face residents and commuters with challenges. According to [nordkurier.de] (https://www.nordkurier.de/regional/schwerin/sperrungen-stus-umleitungen-hier-beart-schwerins-construction site-3765867), the first work has been underway for weeks, and the expansion of these measures will be significantly influenced in the region.

A central point is the Pestalozzistraße , which remains closed on each other by July 25th. This is where the third construction phase for the renovation of the sidewalk and roadway begins on July 19. Traffic is regulated by a traffic light, which still guarantees a certain permeability. Residents are asked to apply for temporary parking permits, while waste disposal and rescue access are ensured.

important closures and diversions

The Richard-Wagner-Straße , where the access to Richard-Wagner-Straße 18 will be completely closed from Monday, July 21st. Here, repair work on the road runs, which are expected to continue until August 1st. An absolute ban on stopping in the construction site area makes it impossible to park your vehicles, while pedestrians are redirected to the opposite sidewalk. Personal information about the contact person is made available to residents.

The state road 042 is also renewed in two construction phases. From July 21, the road between Klein Rogahn and the roundabout will be fully blocked with Kreisstraße 63. Another full closure will follow from July 28 from the roundabout to Schwerin-Neumühle. Around 7,000 square meters of street space are renewed and two bus stops are modernized. The diversions are not exactly short-from the direction of Schwerin-Neumühle you are via the Schwerin, Hugo Pfohe-Knoten, B321, Pampow and K62 to Stralendorf, while the opposite direction of Stralendorf leads to Pampow and further via B321 to Schwerin. This work should be completed by August 10, which will cost the region around 345,000 euros.

additional construction sites and challenges

The variety of construction sites is not an isolated case and does not only affect Schwerin. According to [NDR.de] (https://www.ndr.de/nachrichten/mecklenburg-vorpommern/westmecklenburg/50-kilometer-umdau-bau-bau-werin-in-Sommerferien ,Mvregioschwerin542.html), other traffic axes are also under the impression of extensive construction measures. Leezener Strasse in Raben-Steinfeld is currently closed due to the laying of fiber optic. From Monday there will be a blocking of the B321 in Pinnow, which will last over three weeks between the pumping station and the driveway to the A14. This diversion is almost 50 kilometers and could be extremely cumbersome for travelers between Parchim and Schwerin.

The Grevesmühlener Straße in Schwerin will also be partially closed until the end of August, which will affect traffic and the local economy. Another blocking affects sections of the B321 in Friedrichsruhe and at the Ruthenbeck junction until August 31, with diversions via B392 and L06. Residents and travelers are well advised to inform themselves in good time about the ongoing construction work and the outstanding changes.

The upcoming construction work show that summer in Schwerin is not only a time of relaxation, but also a time for necessary infrastructure measures. A little patience and prudence are required to navigate well through the construction site autumn.
