Construction of Asphalt Surface Causes Temporary Shutdown of Pedestrian and Bicycle Route on Seven Arches Bridge

The city administration of Fürth has announced that necessary asphalt repairs will be carried out on the pedestrian and cycle path in Fürth, Germany, from August 25, 2025, to approximately August 29, 2025. The affected section spans from the Siebenbogen Bridge to Park Street.

The repairs aim to permanently enhance safety and comfort for pedestrians and cyclists, as well as to renew the surface of the path. The responsible authority for these repairs is the Autobahn GmbH des Bundes, specifically the branch office responsible for the Fürth area in Northern Bavaria. This organisation manages road and bridge construction and maintenance projects, including resurfacing.

Despite the closure, a detour is available for pedestrians and cyclists. The detour leads via Diana Street, the waterworks, and Hubertus Street. The detour is signposted to ensure easy navigation. The city administration assures that the repairs will not impact the signposting of the detour or the availability of the detour itself.

The closure affects the pedestrian and cycle path under the Siebenbogen Bridge, but the repairs are not limited to this area. They extend to Park Street as well. The repairs are not expected to extend beyond August 29, 2025.

The city administration is implementing these repairs to improve the path's condition and safety. The closure is due to the asphalt repairs in the area of Park Street. The repairs are expected to improve the overall condition of the pedestrian and cycle path.

It's important to note that the detour via Diana Street, the waterworks, and Hubertus Street remains available during the repairs. The city administration encourages all pedestrians and cyclists to follow the detour signs for their safety and the efficiency of the repair work.

This temporary closure is a significant step towards enhancing the infrastructure of Fürth, ensuring a safer and more comfortable journey for all pedestrians and cyclists in the city.
