in Kassel is currently to be expected to have significant traffic disruptions, in particular by several construction sites that are active over Easter. Ludwig-Mond-Straße is badly affected by the work, which leads to traffic jams to the confluence with Auerstraße/on the road. According to Hessische/Lower Saxony Allgemeine (HNA) are the two right traces of the Ludwig-Mond-Straße blocked because water pipes for the interim venue of the State Theater are laid there. The turn left towards the city center and right towards Niederzwehren is still possible. The straight -ahead traffic to the motorway also remains unaffected.

The city of Kassel has already confirmed the Situation and warns of the construction site -related disabilities, which also significantly affect bus traffic. At the same time, new power lines are laid in Süsterfeld-Hellenböhn, which requires laying the sidewalk to the wheel strip. This work is planned until mid -June, followed by further water management work that leads to a half -sided block. Verkehrslage.de indicates that Leuschnerstraße will be fully blocked in summer, which could also make the traffic conditions more difficult.

conversions and traffic jams in the urban area

Another important construction site area is the Brüder-Grimm-Platz, the renovation of which will lead to the closure of Friedrichsstrasse. This measure should be completed by the end of the month. So far, however, there is no larger traffic jams on the already established detour routes. For the summer holidays, the city of Kassel is planning conversions at the bus stops Anne-Frank-Straße and Wilhelm-Busch-Straße, which could result again in traffic.

The measures are part of a more comprehensive project to improve the transport infrastructure. Kassel is one of the pioneering cities in Germany that drive the digitization of traffic management. Autobahn GmbH has taken significant steps in recent years to network the transport infrastructure using C-IT communication. The aim of this technology is to ensure forward -looking and safe traffic on over 13,000 kilometers of motorway. Over 200,000 inhabitants already benefit from the measures such as autobahn.de reported.

Currently, technologies such as light signal systems with fiber optic reserves are modernized, and the installation of Wi-Lan technology according to ETSI ITS G5 Standard is being promoted. Buses and police vehicles are equipped with the latest technology in order to make traffic safer and more efficient. A free app called Trafficpilot should also provide digital services for drivers and cyclists what could further increase user -friendliness.

In addition to the construction sites, the traffic situation was influenced by a recent incident, in which three people were slightly injured in a collision between a tram and a car in Kassel. The city and the transport companies are under pressure to improve security in traffic, especially under the given circumstances.
