Ruhrtal pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas is carrying out work on the final restoration of the surface in Ringstraße and Marscheidstraße in Wickede

From Tuesday, 22 April 2025, the transmission system operator Thyssengas will be carrying out work on the final restoration of the road surface in the Ringstrasse and Marscheidstrasse area. The work will take place in the area of the construction site already set up for the previous pipeline construction work and will result in a half-sided closure of the respective road area. Traffic can continue to flow along the construction site and will be regulated by a mobile traffic light system. Overall, the work will take a few days and, according to current planning, will be completed by the end of the week.

The planning and realisation of the measure will be carried out in close coordination with representatives of the municipality of Wickede. 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.
