Construction site chaos in Trier: Roads of traffic announced from May!
On Monday, May 5, 2025, extensive construction work around the intersection on Georg-Schmitt-Platz begins in Trier. These measures, which will probably be on Thursday, May 8, 2025, are part of the renovation work on the urban supply network. Based on this work, the right turn in the direction of the Kaiser Wilhelm Bridge is shortened to about 20 meters. Traffic is led over the left turn during construction times from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Outside of these times, the closure should be lifted again. In Lindenstrasse, the left turn is also completely closed, so that traffic must be redirected via the right turn. If you have any questions about the construction work, the technical customer service of Stadtwerke Trier is available on 0651/717-3600. This can be seen from a report by Lokalo.de
The planned renovation work comes at a time when the traffic situation in Trier is already tense. More than 40,000 vehicles use the B49 in the amount of the Kaiser Wilhelm Bridge every day, which illustrates the need for passages and planned construction site management. Urban traffic is strongly affected by the construction work, especially between February 17 and at the end of May, when there are also two floods on the banks of the Martin. These construction work, which are also carried out by the Stadtwerke Trier, includes the renovation of flood sliders that protect the sewer network for Moselle floods. During the first construction phase until March 10, the right lane of the Katharinenufer is closed in the direction of Konz, which can lead to possible backlogs. The traffic routing remains unaffected in the main direction of the Kaiser-Wilhelm bridge, as the
In addition to the current construction sites, it is important to look at the topic of flood protection in Trier. The water management administration has mapped flood areas along the Moselle and its secondary waters in detail. These legal flood areas are crucial to ensure natural flood rooms and to reduce the risk of flooding in inhabited areas. In the past, floods often occurred when the Moselle stepped over the shores and protecting protects were flooded. The calculations of the building department result in various flood scenarios that evaluate the risk from Moselle floods. It can be observed that future flood events may affect areas that have not yet been flooded. This affects both apartments and economic activities, be it through pressurized water or directly through water forces, as can be found in detail on the city of Trier: Trier.de . The flood hazard cards that are available in the Geoportal of the City of Trier show potentially endangered areas for certain levels. These cards give the population an insight into the flood risks and help authorities to plan preventive and reactive measures. The previously known flood events and their statistical probabilities illustrate the urgency of the measures that are necessary to preserve the infrastructure and the security of the citizens. flood protection and future risks
