Ruhr Valley pipeline project: Transmission system operator Thyssengas carries out pipeline construction work in Voßwinkeler Straße in Arnsberg - second construction phase begins

In the course of the coming week (week of 26/02/24), the transmission system operator Thyssengas will continue the construction work on Voßwinkeler Straße, which began and was communicated back in January. The second construction phase begins.

The second construction section extends over a length of approx. 250 metres and means that the southern lane (in the direction of Wickede) will be closed for the duration of the project, which will last approx. four weeks. The construction section follows on from the end of the previous section and ends before the junction of Voßwinkeler Straße and Arnsberger Straße. Traffic can continue to flow along the construction site and will be regulated by a temporary traffic light system.

The planning and realisation of the measures will be carried out in close coordination with 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.
