Construction site chaos in Demmin: Kahlenbrücke completely closed from summer vacation!

The Kahlenbrücke in Demmin faces extensive renovation work that is necessary to ensure the safety of traffic and to protect the bridge from further damage. As reports nordkurier.de, the road surface is severely worn out. The measures include the renewal of the covering and the use of special building materials that are intended to minimize the construction site. But what does that mean for drivers in the region?

The Kahlenbrücke is an important traffic route that connects the southern districts of Demmin to the center and also leads the federal road 110 towards Dargun. In summer, when the construction work takes place, road users have to expect major restrictions. The full closure of the bridge is scheduled for a period of 14 days - and in the middle of the summer holidays in order not to affect school traffic.

construction work in detail

The construction work is expected to begin on Monday, August 18, 2025, with a half -side traffic routing during the day and nightly completely closures. From Wednesday, August 27, the bridge will be completely closed. This full closure also applies to the hub on the Heilgeiststraße/Baumannstraße. It should be noted that only emergency vehicles may pass the bridge during the construction work. All other road users have to use a detour, which is signposted via Dargun, Malchin and Stavenhagen. Pedestrians can still cross the bridge.

The renewal of the road surface is not only necessary for aesthetic reasons. This suffered significantly in the winter months, so that there is an urgent need for action. A message from the city of Demmin underlines that the work is only possible in the summer months, since certain weather conditions are required for the thin -layer covering. This course ensures that the students have a safe journey after the holidays.

environmentally friendly measures and noise protection

Another positive aspect is that small boats can drive through under the bridge at any time during the work. There will be a bridge train for larger ships every day at 8 a.m. In order for minimal restrictions for the residents, special noise protection measures are taken during the construction period. But of course a construction site always means a certain challenge: the road construction office Neustrelitz asks for understanding and patience from the population.

The planned implementation of the measures also offers the possibility of tackling several problems, such as maintaining the bridge and optimizing traffic routing at the intersection. Taking into account all security requirements that must be observed in such construction projects, those responsible show a good knack in organizing the construction work. Detailed security guidelines that affect the accessibility of the maintenance institutions contribute to the fact that everything can run smoothly, in the sense of traffic safety and the longevity of the bridge, as Bad-gmbh.de describes.
