Further roads cleaned and cleared - Observe current regulations on site

Due to the flooding, some roads in the vicinity of the rivers are still partially or completely closed. In the meantime, numerous closures have been lifted and the remaining roads are gradually being cleaned, checked and reopened as the situation allows.

Annaberger Straße between Reichsstraße and Treffurthstraße remains closed. In addition, the cycle path on Eubaer Straße near the dam was closed this morning; water is to be drained from the dam in a controlled manner until tomorrow. Local residents were informed of this this morning by loudspeaker vans. There is also a new closure in Querweg in Wittgensdorf (overflowing pond) and in Einsiedlier Hauptstraße / corner of K-Franke-Straße (monitoring of the bank wall). The Chemnitz Valley cycle path between Lohrstraße and Dammweg is also closed as the carriageway is washed out.
