Road closures in Weseke and Herten as construction work proceeds
In Weseke, North Rhine‑Westphalia, the end‑expansion of Holthausener Straße began on 22 June 2026. The works, covering the stretch between Kotten‑Büsken and Hohen Weg, are scheduled to finish by the end of November 2026. Drivers are warned of possible traffic restrictions and are asked to follow detour signs; the city of Borken thanked residents and motorists for their patience.
In Herten‑Mitte, Hospitalstraße is fully closed from 18 June 2026 for roughly four weeks while a new district‑heating pipeline is installed between house numbers 40 and 48. A two‑sided parking and stopping ban applies, the sidewalk is closed, and pedestrians are directed to the opposite side of the street. Access to affected properties will remain possible. The Hertener Stadtwerke project aims to expand the local heat‑supply network and expects completion within the planned period.
