Construction site B 169: Detours and patience required by October!

Dittersbach, Deutschland - The federal road B 169 in Dittersbach is currently a whole corner less self -sufficient. As the Freie Presse is not only reported on a long section of approx. 7.4 kilometers between Frankenberg and Hainichen are strong in the making, but also recently received a new covering. But not everything works smoothly: the free journey will only be possible again in October. At the moment, countless construction vehicles such as trucks, vans and rollers provide a lot of traffic on the B 169, which is finally one of the most important traffic arteries in Central Saxony.

On May 5, 2025, the renovation work officially started and they are extremely important for the region. The measures include not only the renewal of the asphalt deck and binder layer, but also the renovation of sidewalks and curb. An important innovation is the barrier -free expansion of the bus stops "Three Roses" in Dittersbach and the construction of a left turn into the street "Zum Bahnhof". These steps are intended to make up for upcoming road users: Life makes life easier, since the legislature places ever higher demands on accessibility.

Details on the construction site

The construction site is carried out in six sections, which always leads to full -scale closures. Here is an overview of the sections:

• Section 1: Dittersbach/Zum Bahnhof to Gersdorf/Ibersdorfer Straße (early May to the end of June).
• Section 2: Gersdorf/Ibersdorfer Straße to Gersdorf/Rößnerweg (first half of the summer vacation).
• Section 3: Gersdorf/Rößnerweg to intersection B 169/s 201 (second half of the summer vacation).
• Section 4.1: intersection B 169/s 201 up to access Hagebaumarkt (mid -August to early September).
• Section 4.2: Access Hagebaumarkt to the south of intersection B 169/s 201 (beginning to mid -September).
• Section 5: Dittersbach/Outer Hainichener Straße, house no. 3 to Dittersbach/Sachsenburger Weg (mid -September to mid -October).
• Section 6: Dittersbach/Sachsenburger Weg to Dittersbach/to the train station (mid -October to the end of October).

If you want to drive around the area in the coming months, you will have to adjust to large -scale diversions via the S 201 and S 202. Incidentally, the detour route on the S 201 was recently repaired to improve the flow of traffic. The total investment for this important infrastructure project amounts to around two million euros, with around 1.88 million euros from the budget of the Federal Republic of Germany and 120,000 euros being provided by the city of Frankenberg. Residents, traders and road users are asked for understanding and, above all, a prudent driving style in the diversion areas.

A look at the entire infrastructure

This construction measure is part of a superordinate plan. As is well known, Germany is massively investing in the transport infrastructure. As rnd , additional expenses of a total of 166 billion euros are planned for the years. 52 billion euros are to flow for the federal highways alone. Some of these investments aim to put up with dilapidated streets and bridges and to improve mobility for everyone. A step that many political decision -makers consider urgently, because the infrastructure is often described as outdated and no longer referred to.

Overall, the renovation of the B 169 in Dittersbach is not only a selective measure, but a necessary contribution to better accessibility and traffic safety in the region. This not only improves direct connections, but also a sign of investments in the infrastructure, which are of crucial importance for both the economy and for daily mobility of the citizens.
