Construction work in Dessau

  • Section: K
  • 23.2.2026–31.5.2026

Cyclists on the Elbe Cycle Route should prepare for changes to traffic routing in the Dessau-Roßlau city area starting next week. As part of a joint project by the city and the local utility company (DVV), construction work will begin on Monday, February 23, 2026, in Antoinettenstraße.

  • Area: Full closure between the Wolfgangstraße intersection and Hausmannstraße.

  • Duration: Expected to last until the end of May 2026.

  • Background: Redesign of the junction at Ferdinand-von-Schill-Straße and renewal of the road surface.

  • Important for Cyclists: While motor vehicle traffic will be diverted via Fritz-Hesse-Straße, a dedicated route for cyclists and pedestrians will be organized directly through the construction area.

Please follow the on-site signage and be mindful of pedestrians. These works are a necessary step in preparation for the upcoming construction of the roundabout at the Catholic Church starting in late summer.
