Wiesloch begins retaining wall renovation in Schatthausen

The city of Wiesloch will begin preparations for the renovation of a retaining wall on Meckesheimer Weg in the Schatthausen district on October 19, 2026. The project aims to renew the slope protection on both sides using natural stone blocks.

The contract for earthworks, demolition, road construction, and slope stabilization was awarded to Kühnle GmbH & Co. KG for approximately 389,805 euros. Pending favorable weather conditions, the work is expected to be completed by February 2027.

Due to limited space, Meckesheimer Weg will be subject to a full closure during construction. To maintain access to the nearby cemetery and local farms, a parallel service road to the Repsäcker new development area will be repaired for single-lane vehicle use. Pedestrians will be redirected via various detours, including routes through Kirchstraße and Ravensburgstraße.
