Cycling route 11 extension causes temporary closure of Weusthoffstraße intersection lasting until the end of August.
**News Article: Veloroute 11 Construction Update in Eißendorf, Harburg**
The Veloroute 11 construction project in the Eißendorf district of Harburg is currently underway, aiming to enhance cycling infrastructure and improve safety for cyclists in the area.
**Intersection Closure**
From July 18 to August 30, the intersection of Weusthoffstraße and Denickestraße will be closed for construction activities related to the Veloroute 11 development. All vehicle and bicycle traffic will be diverted during this period to facilitate uninterrupted construction work.
**Detours and Alternative Routes**
Detours will be provided for motorists and cyclists, with local signage guiding traffic around the closure. Pedestrian routes may also be temporarily adjusted for safety. Construction is expected to stay on schedule, with completion expected shortly after the end of August closure.
Residents and commuters are advised to plan alternative routes and allow extra travel time during this period. For those using public transportation, the "Denickestraße" bus stop will be skipped in both directions.
**Stay Informed**
To stay updated on the project's progress, residents and visitors are encouraged to check local traffic updates or the Hamburg city construction website. The city also recommends using alternative cycling routes during the closure.
Official communication channels will provide any changes or updates to the schedule. For more information on alternative routes or the Veloroute 11 project, feel free to ask!
**Upcoming Closures**
In September 2024, a four-week closure of the eastern area of Denickestraße is scheduled to occur. After the four-week closure in September, there will be a final two-weekend closure of the intersection area in October for asphalt works.
After August 30, no further utility or road construction works are mentioned to take place. Pedestrian and bicycle traffic will continue to be safely guided through the construction site.
The surrounding infrastructure is not affected solely by the Veloroute 11 construction; other industries, such as finance, may experience shifts due to potential changes in regional commuting patterns caused by the project. During the closure of the intersection from July 18 to August 30, the transportation industry will be affected, as vehicle and bicycle traffic will be diverted and alternative routes will be required for commuters using public transportation.
