The seventh construction phase continues along the Ruhr Valley cycle path and ends at Casparistraße 47. 250 metres of the Ruhr Valley cycle path will be closed for the duration of the project, which will last approximately four weeks. In addition, the southern carriageway (in the direction of Uentrop) will also be closed for the duration of the project in order to provide a replacement cycle path. Traffic can continue to flow in one lane and will be regulated by a temporary traffic light system. The final surface restoration will take place after completion of the measure.
The other sections will continue along Casparistraße in the direction of Uentrop and will end in the local area there. The final surface restoration will take place after completion of the pipe and civil engineering work. Thyssengas will keep the public informed about the subsequent construction phases.
The planning and realisation of the measures will be carried out in close coordination with the representatives of the town of Arnsberg, 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.
