Augustenstraße in Maxvorstadt closed to motor traffic from 26 to 30 October for resurfacing

Augustenstraße in Maxvorstadt will be fully closed to motor vehicles between Theresienstraße and Gabelsbergerstraße from 9am on Monday 26 October until 7am on Friday 30 October while the road is resurfaced. The closure covers the resurfacing itself, the preparatory work beforehand and the time needed afterwards for the asphalt to cool.

Pedestrians will still be able to pass the works on both sides of the street. Cyclists heading towards the city centre and the main railway station will share the new footway on the west side with pedestrians. Cyclists travelling towards Josephsplatz will continue to be diverted via Gabelsbergerstraße, Luisenstraße and Theresienstraße.

Northbound motor traffic towards Josephsplatz will be diverted via Gabelsbergerstraße, Luisenstraße and Theresienstraße. In the opposite direction, towards the main railway station, the signposted diversion runs via Theresienstraße, Maßmannstraße, Sandstraße, Josef-Ruederer-Straße and Gabelsbergerstraße. Temporary loading and unloading areas will be available on Theresienstraße outside number 67 and on Augustenstraße outside numbers 53 and 62. Residents have been informed directly, particularly about access to their properties.

Once the resurfacing is complete, work will continue between Steinheilstraße and Theresienstraße, with the southbound one-way system back in place until mid-December. No further closures to motor traffic are planned. The city's construction department will remove the site equipment for the winter break, and work between Brienner Straße and Gabelsbergerstraße and between Theresienstraße and Schellingstraße is expected to begin from March 2027.

The scheme, drawn up by the city's mobility department, aims to improve road safety, make Augustenstraße a more pleasant place to spend time and calm traffic. As part of the work, 17 new trees will be planted and previously sealed surfaces will be greened.
