Remodeling is shifting to 2026
The planned location -friendly redesign of the Wallerstädten area is delayed by one year and will now begin in autumn 2026 at the earliest. Construction was originally planned for autumn 2025.
The district town of Groß-Gerau ended the draft planning in 2024 and submitted the application for funding according to the Finance Equipment Act at the State of Hesse. The state provides a funding of 70 percent for the renovation of the coincidences, including sidewalks, parking spaces and bus stops. Since this infrastructure is getting old and no longer corresponds to the current requirements, the renovation is both necessary and economically sensible.
Shortly before Christmas 2024, Hessen Mobil shared, as the responsible road construction carrier for the lane of the state road and a leading authority in this project, that construction will be delayed by one year due to other construction projects. The shift is justified with the ongoing renovation of the Leeheim passage, which began in January 2025. Since the first construction phase in Leeheim requires a full closure and the conversion of the knot point in Geinsheim must also be taken into account in the planning, the measures in Wallerstädten cannot be carried out at the same time for traffic reasons.
Despite the delay, the planning process continues. The execution planning and coordination with supply carriers such as municipal utilities, waterworks and traffic authorities continue. The information event for the citizens, originally promised by Hessen Mobil for spring 2025, will also take place at a later date due to the postponement-probably in 2026. The district town of Groß-Gerau regrets the delay and continues to be over inform the progress of the project.
