Overview of the construction site

The construction work involves a variety of aspects that have led to questions regarding the simultaneous implementation of several construction phases. Initially, the RPS only wanted to renovate the road surface on the B27, which would have taken around three weeks. Municipal utilities, on the other hand, planned to install sewers and district heating over a period of five months. In order to minimize disruption as much as possible, both projects were merged.

A third construction phase on the Auwiesenbrücke is scheduled to begin in mid-2026. The closure of the L1125 between Sachsenheim and Bietigheim-Bissingen is planned for outside the holiday period. This civil engineering work is expected to take around four months and will benefit from the current ideal weather, which is characterized by low rainfall.

Construction site safety

Safety at construction sites plays a central role. When carrying out road construction work, it is necessary that the risk to road users is minimized through appropriate protective measures. A comprehensive concept for traffic safety must be implemented in accordance with the Road Traffic Act (StVO) and the guidelines for securing workplaces on roads. Construction Media informs you that a traffic law order must be obtained from the responsible authority before work can begin.

There must be enough space for safe work, and the minimum requirements for control and operating activities stipulate that the free space in the workplace is sufficient. Regular inspection and maintenance is required during the construction site, ideally carried out twice a day.

The total duration of the major construction site on the B27 is scheduled to last six months until December 2025. The goal is to have most of the work completed before the start of the school year in the fall. Despite the long construction period so far, the RPS is satisfied with the progress of the work, as traffic continues to flow steadily, even if it is happening more slowly.
