Ruhr Valley pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas is carrying out pipeline construction work in the street "Im Neyl" in Arnsberg - half-sided closure from 05.05.2025

From Monday, 5 May 2025, the transmission system operator Thyssengas will begin the next construction phase of the pipeline construction work on the street "Im Neyl" in Arnsberg. The current construction phase follows on from the previous one and extends over a length of approx. 250 metres up to house number 6. The work will result in the closure of the northbound lane (towards Uentrop). Traffic can continue to flow in one lane along the construction site and will be regulated by a temporary traffic light system. In total, the work will take around six weeks and, according to the current planning status, will be completed in mid-June 2025. The full closure of the previous construction phase will be lifted as planned at the end of this week (week 18).

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