Vaihingen: Closures and diversions on Leibnizstrasse from May 26th; Bus route 706 resumes its usual route.

Leibnizstrasse closed from Monday: Mahdentalstrasse will be free!
From Monday, May 26th, Leibnizstrasse will be closed on both sides in the area of the future roundabout at Peter-Schaufler-Platz. This is part of a comprehensive construction site that also affects the area where Schwertstrasse meets Mahdentalstrasse, which will remain completely closed in both directions until the end of November. A diversion for traffic in the direction of Böblingen will be signposted via Eschenbrünnlestraße, Waldenbucher Straße, IBM-Straße and Böblinger Straße to ensure smooth traffic connections. However, from Sunday, May 25th, the full closure on Mahdentalstrasse will be lifted; one lane in each direction is then opened. Loud SZBZ However, there is no left-turn option from Stuttgarter Straße/K 1055 towards the Sindelfingen-Ost junction.
These measures are part of a larger transport project that aims to improve transport connections at important junctions in Sindelfingen. Sindelfingen municipal utilities in particular are taking advantage of the synergy effects with DEGES, which will be renovating the Leibnizstrasse underpass under the A 81 by the end of the year. This comprehensive work ensures that the transport infrastructure meets future requirements and improves the quality of life in the region.
Removal of diversions and impact on public transport
The bus line 706, which connects the Böblingen central bus station with the Viehweide, will again serve the “Hofmeister” bus stop in both directions from May 26th. This line had previously been rerouted due to construction work, as in sindelfingen.de reported. This marks an important step towards normalizing traffic in the construction site area.
The adjustments also affect the traffic lights and traffic in the Mahdentalstrasse/L 1183 junction in order to ensure performance. A gap traffic light will be installed to allow left turns. However, the two-lane structure on Mahdentalstrasse will remain in place until at least spring 2026, which continues to be important for traffic flow.
Long-term planning for sustainable mobility
The planned changes should not be viewed in isolation. Integrative transport planning is crucial for shaping future mobility in Sindelfingen. Like that Federal Environment Agency emphasizes, municipal transport development planning not only influences traffic, but also the quality of life of citizens. These findings are incorporated into planning in order to find a balance between different types of transport and sustainable urban development.
The traffic islands and zebra crossings are intended to help guide pedestrians and cyclists safely. In addition, the desire for more noise protection and the recovery of road space is becoming increasingly clear, which can only be achieved through well-considered, integrated traffic concepts.
