Construction site chaos in Chemnitz: new closures from Monday!

From Monday, July 7, 2025, there will be several new construction sites in Chemnitz, which have some challenges for road users. This work is part of a comprehensive program to improve the city's infrastructure, but they also bring restrictions with them, which in particular will burden residents and commuters. Especially during the after -work hours, longer traffic jams can be expected, as many Chemnitzer already know from past construction phases.

The most important construction sites at a glance:

important roads affected

• Berg (house numbers 1-3) : Here you work on electricity house connections. The road will be completely closed until August 1st. This affects both residents and transit traffic, and there are considerable restrictions.
• Bahnhofstrasse : The renovation of the road drainage also begins on Monday. The wheel strip between Waisenstraße and Brückenstraße is closed and cycling traffic must be diverted via the sidewalk. This work should be completed by July 25th.

traffic disruptions ahead

Special attention should be paid to the chemnitzers on the changed diversions that arise from the construction sites. The city administration has already made preparations to direct the traffic affected. Residents report resentment about the increasing disabilities in their everyday life, and the current situation could lead to traffic chaos, as it was in the past when several roads have been blocked at the same time.

The construction sites are also a big topic for pedestrians and cyclists, because the work affects not only the streets, but also foot and bike paths. "This makes walking and cycling particularly gambling in the city center," says a affected citizen.
