Ruhr Valley pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas carries out pipeline construction work in Werler Straße in Arnsberg

From Tuesday, 15 July 2025, the transmission system operator Thyssengas will be carrying out pipeline construction work in Werler Straße in Arnsberg. The work will take place at the intersection with the state road 745. As a result, the right-hand turning lane from the L745 onto Werler Straße and the eastern lane of Werler Straße (up to the level of the Aral petrol station) will be closed for the duration of the work. Traffic in this area will be diverted via the left-turn lane of Werler Straße (coming from the north). The left-turn lane will be integrated into the western carriageway of Werler Straße during this period. In total, the work will take around four weeks and will be completed by mid-August according to current planning. The Aral petrol station will remain accessible for the entire duration of the work.

The planning and implementation of the measures will be carried out in close coordination with the representatives of the city of Arnsberg. Thyssengas asks for your understanding for the resulting inconvenience. The measure described is related to the Ruhr Valley pipeline project.

About the Ruhrtal pipeline project

Due to increased capacity requirements, Thyssengas GmbH has been expanding its gas transport system in the Wickede / Arnsberg / Meschede region - the so-called Ruhr Valley pipeline - since 2018. The existing pipeline system is being modernised in several construction phases, increasing transport capacity in the process. The Ruhrtal pipeline will supply the downstream networks of the local municipal utilities as well as numerous large consumers such as industrial companies and power plants with gas. The entire project is scheduled for completion in 2026.
