Street Schloßstraße reopens for traffic on 1 September, as weekly market resumes its original spot

In the heart of Bergisch Gladbach, the city is gearing up for a significant change. On September 1, 2025, a partial section of Schloßstraße in Bensberg will reopen to traffic, marking an early opening before the planned completion of construction works.

The reopened section will stretch from Nikolausstraße to the intersection at Gartenstraße. Traffic will be diverted from Gartenstraße to Steinstraße using a traffic signal system, ensuring smooth flow of vehicles. A one-way traffic rule will apply on Schloßstraße from Nikolausstraße.

Ragnar Migenda, the First Deputy Mayor of the city, expressed his pleasure at the early opening of Schloßstraße. He stated that this early opening is a fulfillment of a promise to relieve trade, commerce, and the city society.

Designated parking spaces on the right side of Schloßstraße, from Nikolausstraße, will be available upon opening. These designated parking spaces will be clearly marked by signs and cobblestones, and parking regulations will be strictly enforced, with violations penalized with fines.

The Bensberg weekly market will resume on September 4, 2025, at its old location in front of the Schlosstreppe. However, during market hours, the fountain field in front of the Schlossgalerie will be turned off to accommodate the bustling market.

The section between Gartenstraße and Am Stockbrunnen will remain closed during this time, with construction ongoing. Traffic will be diverted via Gartenstraße onto Steinstraße towards Kölner Straße.

It's worth noting that the private underground garage in Schloßstraße will remain accessible.

The early opening of Schloßstraße is a significant step towards revitalizing the area and enhancing the city's infrastructure. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development.
