Construction site chaos in Kiel: important roads are at a standstill here!

Today, December 27, 2025, everything in Kiel is about construction sites and traffic disruptions. The site provides information so that road users can orientate themselves well kn online about the current challenges on the city's streets.

A look at the construction site layout shows that numerous main traffic arteries are affected. Those affected include the B76 at Theodor-Heuss-Ring as well as Olof-Palme-Damm, Kaistraße and Eckernförder Straße. There are also closures across the entire city on the Ostring, in Feldstrasse, on Holtenauer Strasse and other important zones such as the Westring and Alte Lübecker Chaussee.

Central construction sites and their course

There are a few larger projects in the foreground for 2025. The Westring between Gutenbergstrasse and Olshausenstrasse is currently being renovated, which is divided into several construction phases. The work is expected to last until June 2027. Another major project concerns the railway bridges on the Alte Lübecker Chaussee. Only one lane of traffic is available there, resulting in a partial closure. Traffic is regulated reciprocally by a traffic light system, which proves useful in minimizing traffic jams.

Particularly noteworthy is the digital height control, which was installed to detect tall vehicles. Vehicles that exceed a clearance height of 3.60 meters will be stopped in good time in front of the bridges because the traffic lights will turn red. This is done in conjunction with LED panels that inform drivers of the triggering and prompt them to turn.

More information about the traffic situation

If you still want to stay up to date, you can find out more about digital communication systems. The IHK Schleswig-Holstein offers a digital atlas that shows both ongoing and upcoming construction sites in the region connected to maps. In addition, users receive up-to-the-minute information about traffic flow and delays - ideal for anyone who has to get on the road during rush hour.

There is also important information for traders. The so-called construction site marketing is intended to help minimize the disadvantages of construction work for local companies. Construction sites can also be used as an opportunity for public relations events to draw attention to local businesses.

In conclusion, construction sites are necessary for repairing, modernizing and expanding our transport network, even if they are sometimes annoying. However, the information flow around the construction sites is well organized and makes it possible to better cope with the daily challenges in road traffic.
