Full closure of the Hammweg: Detours until October 25th!

in the county of Bentheim are road construction work underway that have an important impact on traffic. Hammweg, an important connection between Lohne and Elbergen, is completely blocked from October 23 to 25. This decision concerns the section from the confluence on Geestkamp to the district border of the Emsland, in the immediate vicinity of the EMS Vechte Canal.

The blocking takes place just a few days after the bridge was reopened over the Dortmund-Ems Canal near Hanekenfähr, which has been accessible for car traffic since October 14. This bridge has been a central detour route for many drivers in recent months, especially for those who were traveling from Lingen to Emsbüren or vice versa. Because of the construction sites, the Hammweg had become a popular alternative, although the detour due to the bridge closure was reasonably cumbersome.

importance of the construction work

The decision to carry out the construction work after the reopening of the bridge was considered sensible by the responsible authorities. According to the announcement by the district of Grafschaft Bentheim, this should avoid an unnecessarily long detour route. This explains why the work is now being tackled, despite the short -term restrictions that they bring for the residents and through traffic.

For the diversion route required during the blocking, clear suggestions were developed, which are clearly signposted for all road users. This testifies to a well thought -out plan that should keep the impairments for drivers as low as possible. The optimization of the traffic flow is particularly important in a region that depends heavily on transport connections.

The construction work is expected to take a few days, and the residents and commuters are asked to adjust accordingly to the changes. The need for such measures shows that the infrastructure requires constant improvements to meet the needs of citizens both today and in the future. Further information on the exact traffic tours and any delays that may arise can be found in the official announcements of the district.
