Complete closure in Kempten: Construction work will stop traffic from November 24th!

Important construction work is underway in Kaufbeuren, which will have a major impact on traffic flow in the city from Monday, November 24, 2025. Kemptener Straße between Kemptener Tor and Hölzlestraße/Apfeltranger Straße will be completely closed from 9:00 a.m. This measure is necessary because a sewer connection has to be laid for a new building on the opposite side of the street. The work is expected to continue until Friday, November 28, 2025, although delays due to weather are possible. The city informs citizens in the event of changes to the deadlines, as kaufbeuren.de reports.

The diversion during the construction period will take place via the Hohe Buchleuthe. It is important to mention that the roundabout on Kemptener Straße/Kemptener Tor/Kemnater Straße remains accessible. The access to the Am Kesselberg road remains accessible to all road users at all times. The eastern footpath and cycle path remains passable for pedestrians and cyclists, although cyclists must stop in the direction of the city center and pass the construction site on foot.

Public transport affected

The changes in public transport are also significant. Line 6 will be affected; The Am Mösele, St.-Cosmas-Straße, Salzstraße, Am Schlössle and Kemptener Tor stops will be completely closed. In addition, the Kemptener Straße, Lachenbühl and Oberbeuren Hauptstraße stops are only served for those traveling out of town. Passengers should be prepared to have to board the train out of town. The Kemptener Tor stop will also be closed to lines 75 and 76, with these lines now serving the Kemptener Straße stop in both directions. For line 10 there are also no stops at the Kemptener Tor stop. Possible short-term course changes are also to be expected and passengers should expect delays on public transport.

Similar construction projects in the surrounding area

Construction work is also underway in neighboring Immenstadt, which is affecting traffic. Between July 18th and 20th, 2025, Jahnstrasse will be opened in both directions and will then be closed to southbound traffic from Monday, July 21st, 2025. This work is part of a measure to complete a district heating and water pipe connection and to improve the bus stop. Through traffic from Kemptener Straße to Sonthofener Straße will be redirected to ease the flow of traffic during the “Year Market of Dreams” event, as stadt-immenstadt.de announced.

Construction projects are also noticeable in other cities. An increase in construction sites was recorded in the Dortmund city area, which can be attributed to the increased investment by the city, the state and the Federal Republic of Germany. These measures aim to resolve the renovation backlog of the municipal infrastructure and are carried out in close cooperation between the municipal utilities and local companies in order to minimize the burden on citizens, informs dortmund.de.
