Infrastructure closures reported in Olfen and Hannover

In Olfen, the junction of Kökelsumer Straße and the B58 is fully closed to motorists due to construction work on a pedestrian and bicycle path. The project, managed by Straßen. NRW, involves relocating the path approximately four meters into Kökelsumer Straße to allow cyclists to cross before reaching the federal highway. The closure is expected to last approximately three weeks, with traffic diverted via district roads K9 and K26 toward Hullern.

In Hannover, pedestrian and bicycle paths on both sides of the Ihme under the Leinertbrücke have been closed following the discovery of damaged supports on a water pipe. Enercity has taken the pipe out of service and implemented provisional security measures to prevent a collapse. While water supply to connected areas remains secured, the duration of the closure is currently unknown. Local authorities and bridge engineers are coordinating further safety measures and repair planning.
