Broadband infrastructure expansion causes road closures in Germany

Various construction projects aimed at expanding fiber optic and broadband infrastructure are scheduled to cause traffic disruptions in parts of Germany.

In Hoheneck, fiber optic installation in Heimengasse is set to begin on November 2. Following these works, the wooden footbridge over Marbacher Straße will be dismantled. Local authorities and Stadtwerke Ludwigsburg-Kornwestheim (SWLB) coordinated the timing of these projects to minimize the duration of restrictions for residents.

In Mühlhausen, Tiefenbronner Straße will undergo sectional closures starting November 4 to facilitate broadband expansion. The first phase, running from November 4 to approximately November 13, will implement a one-way traffic system between Blumenstraße and the Marienkapelle junction. This phase will also affect public transport, specifically the Mühlhausen (Würm) Rathaus bus stop. The second phase will continue from November 13 to December 18, affecting the area between Blumenstraße and Lindenstraße. Traffic will be diverted via Bergstraße during these works.
