Ruhr Valley pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas is carrying out pipeline construction work in Voßwinkeler Straße (corner of "Zum Flugplatz") in Arnsberg

As part of the construction of a new station for the gas distribution network operator Westnetz, the transmission network operator Thyssengas is planning to build the corresponding connection pipeline. As a result, from Wednesday, 23.10.2024, a half-sided road closure will be set up on Voßwinkeler Straße (corner of "Zum Flugplatz") over a length of approx. 100 metres. Traffic can continue to flow along the construction site and will be regulated by a mobile traffic light system. The work will be completed at the beginning of next week (week 44) and the road will be fully reopened.

The planning and implementation of the measures will be carried out in close coordination with representatives of the city of Arnsberg 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.
