Traffic chaos in Lübeck: construction work on Berliner Platz will start soon!
Traffic chaos is just around the corner! In Lübeck, the first road construction work will begin at Berliner Platz in St. Jürgen on Monday, October 20, 2025. These measures are intended to temporarily adjust traffic routing and are intended as an interim solution. The city administration urgently warns that there will be significant traffic disruptions over a period of around five weeks. Those who are particularly familiar with the area are encouraged to avoid the area if possible to avoid traffic jams.
A fundamental adjustment is required: the traffic islands at all entrances and exits will be converted in order to optimize cycling traffic routing. Even if the roundabout remains accessible in one lane throughout the construction period, individual entrances and exits will be temporarily closed depending on the progress of the work. Here is an overview of the closure times:
Closing times at a glance
| Arrival and departure | Blocking time |
|---|---|
| Berlin Street | October 19th to 26th, 2025 |
| Geniner Street West | October 26th to November 7th, 2025 |
| St. Jürgen Ring/Geniner Straße East | November 7th (from 3 p.m.) to November 10, 2025 (until 5 a.m.) |
| Possehlstrasse | November 10th to 21st, 2025 |
The city administration is doing everything it can to keep traffic running smoothly. Detours will be signposted so that the population can orientate themselves better. However, you should be aware that the heavy traffic at Berliner Platz could make the situation significantly more difficult.
New solutions for traffic
But it's not just road construction that's being worked on; Innovative concepts for mobility are also on the horizon. The company STRATMO supports cities and municipalities in Germany in putting scientific findings into practice. They have made it their mission to actively shape mobility through state-of-the-art traffic planning and not just manage it. Cities benefit from modern analysis methods and practical mobility planning.
STRATMO promotes knowledge transfer and relies on innovative processes that are intended to involve both planners and citizens. The aim is to create a social-ecological transport transition in order to ensure sustainable transport development in our cities. Interactive workshops will teach the basics of sustainable planning that also takes people's needs into account.
Anyone who still has questions in connection with the construction project and the new mobility concepts should contact relevant authorities or advisory services. Electronic appointment booking is also an option for public administration concerns, as service.berlin.de shows. Free appointments for non-urgent matters can be easily reserved online.
The coming weeks will be exciting: Lübeck's traffic is facing an important turn - both due to the construction work on Berliner Platz and through innovative approaches to mobility. A good opportunity to redesign not only the streets but also the way people in the city think.
