End of the Zietenstrasse construction project adapted

Media renewals are required in the construction section between Augustusburger Straße and Sonnenstraße

The coordinated Zietenstrasse construction project is taking longer than planned. Due to the condition of the pipe and media stock found during the work, the media owners have decided to completely replace this stock in the construction area. This will extend the construction period by around three months and the end of construction will be postponed from October 2024 to probably December 2024.

During the construction work, Zietenstraße between Augustusburger Straße and Sonnenstraße will be fully closed to vehicle traffic in sections. In order to minimise disruption for local residents, the work will be carried out in four sections.
Traffic will be routed in both directions via Augustusburger Straße, Yorckstraße and Fürstenstraße. Pedestrian traffic will be guaranteed at all times. Access to neighbouring properties is possible with restrictions.

Work on Zietenstraße began in mid-November 2022. In May 2022, Chemnitz City Council decided to renovate Zietenstraße between Augustusburger and Sonnenstraße as a coordinated construction project. This will involve inetz/eins and ESC renewing the district heating pipes, gas and water pipes, electricity systems including the city lighting and the sewer. The carriageway and the sides of the road will be almost completely dug up for these complex pipe installations.
The road will then be completely renewed over a length of approx. 290 metres by the City of Chemnitz's traffic and civil engineering department. The ESC is coordinating the entire project. The utility company eins, the ESC and the City of Chemnitz Transport and Civil Engineering Office are investing a total of around 3.3 million euros.
