Ruhr Valley pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas carries out pipeline construction work in Arnsberger Straße in Wickede - eighth construction phase begins

From Monday, 16 September 2024, the transmission system operator will continue the construction work on Arnsberger (previously Voßwinkeler) Straße, which began and was communicated in January. The eighth construction phase begins.

The eighth construction phase begins in the area of Arnsberger Straße house number 46 and extends over a length of approx. 150 metres in the direction of Wickede. The road will be closed on one side for approximately six weeks. The lane closure will change once during the course of the work. Traffic can continue to flow along the construction site for the entire duration of the work and will be regulated by a mobile traffic light system. The Lendringser Straße / Feldweg junction will remain open to traffic.

The planning and realisation of the measures will be carried out in close coordination with the representatives of the municipality of Wickede, the responsible authorities and Straßen.NRW. Thyssengas asks for your understanding for the resulting inconvenience. The measure described is related to the Ruhr Valley pipeline project.

About the Ruhr Valley 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.
