Big change: L 3046 will be completely renewed by 2026!

The renewal of the state road 3046 in Mengerskirchen, which is carried out as a community measure between the Mengerskirchen and Hesse market, is progressing. These comprehensive construction work will start in 2024 with the first construction phase, which begins on January 15. Since then, the passing through the L 3046 has been completely closed due to the extensive construction work. The construction work was divided into several sections to ensure efficient implementation and to minimize the impairments for residents and road users. [Hessen.de] reports that the planned completion of the entire measures should take place until late spring 2026.

The work is currently in the second construction phase, which will switch to a new phase on Tuesday, April 15, 2025. The barrier to the intersection of the main street, Dammstraße and in the Roth is expanded. This section includes the L 3046 and the main street in house numbers 24 to 57 in Mengerskirchen and is expected to take two months.

full closure and diversion measures

The full closure of the passage through has a profound effects on traffic in the region. Traffic is directed by extensive detour that leads through the streets L 3281, L 3370, L 3453, L 3020 and L 3044. The diversion signage is supplemented to Merenberg. This ensures that the traffic in both directions can be largely redirected, which is particularly important for heavy goods traffic. The cycle path R8 is also affected by the construction work, its diversion runs via business paths west of Mengerskirchen and leads back to the old route from Waldernbach.

To support road users, advance notice boards are set up on the L 3453 and L 3281 in order to point out the closures in good time. The existing diversion signals U 45 and U 59 will probably remain in force until the end of July 2025.

scope of the construction work

The construction work also includes the renewal of the roadway to the widening of the sidewalks to at least 1.5 meters to improve the pedestrian situation. Another focus is on the barrier -free expansion of the bus stops in the main street. In addition, the drinking water line and partly the channel are renewed by the Mengerskirchen market spots, which also includes the renovation of some sections of the canal.

The total construction costs amount to around 6.6 million euros, with the state of Hesse paying around 2.37 million euros and the remaining 4.21 million euros are borne by market stains by Mengerskirchen. The first preparatory phase of the work began in December 2022 and shows how serious and long -term thought this infrastructure project is.

Overall, the project not only promises to improve the street infrastructure, but also contributes to increasing the quality of living conditions in Mengerskirchen. The measures are therefore of great importance for future mobility in the region and should increase traffic safety for all users. [Mengerskirchen.de] emphasizes that it is one of the central infrastructure projects of the community and that the citizens can hope for significant changes in the coming months.
