New bike path between Heusenstamm and Gravenbruch: Bau starts soon!

Heusenstamm, Deutschland - The region around Heusenstamm will experience a comprehensive change from July 14, 2025. Hessen Mobil has announced that it will start building a new bike path on Landesstraße 3117 between Heusenstamm and Gravenbruch. This step is part of a larger transport infrastructure project that should not only increase the safety of cyclists, but also improve road conditions. Hessen.de reports that the construction work is expected to be ongoing by the end of April 2026 and are divided into several construction phases.

The first construction phase extends from the Heusenstamm town exit to the intersection to the L 3001 (Dietzenbacher Straße) and is planned until the beginning of September. During this time, the section is declared a one -way street. However, the route from Heusenstamm after the Gravenbruch for road users remains passable, while the detour takes place in the opposite direction via Dietzenbacher Straße and Hohebergstrasse.

The entire renovation of the L3117 is divided into seven construction phases that will run over the summer vacation and beyond. op-online indicates that the HEUSENSTAGE Central traffic artery for the region can be expected and traffic jams. Traders are concerned about the effects of construction work on their customer transport. Arno Krämer von Hessen Mobil emphasized the need to renovate due to gear grooves and abrasions. The construction work is not only important for traffic safety, but also a prerequisite for obtaining financial aid from the federal stages.

There is a special focus on the planned work during the summer vacation, since the most sensitive route parts are edited there in order to disturb the commuter and student traffic as little as possible. The first and second construction phase at the Kempinski crossing is carried out on the first two holiday weekends. Further important construction actions are scheduled for the following weeks, including a full closure of the important intersection on the first weekend in August.

bike paths for the future

In addition to the renovation of the streets, cycle path construction on the federal and state roads in Hesse will also be promoted. Wirtschaft Hessen has provided an overview of all cycle path projects since 2014 that should not only increase the safety of cyclists, but also promote sustainable mobility. The map shows current and planned cycle paths and is updated regularly.

If everything goes according to plan, the region will benefit from an improved transport network, which not only increases safety in road traffic, but can also have a positive influence on the local economy. However, it is important for all those affected to be well informed about the upcoming changes and, if necessary, plan alternative routes.
