The city of Bensberg is set to witness a significant change starting from September 4, 2025, as Schlossstraße, a prominent shopping street, will reopen to traffic earlier than planned. This partial reopening comes amidst ongoing construction work, a testament to the hard work and dedication of those involved.

The First Deputy Mayor of the city, Ragnar Migenda, expressed his pleasure at this early opening, stating that it is intended to relieve trade, commerce, and the city society. He also took the opportunity to thank all those responsible for making this possible during the ongoing construction work.

From September 4, the fountain field in front of the Schlossgalerie will be turned off during market hours. However, market vendors will be back at their usual spots in front of the castle steps and the Schlossgalerie, as the Bensberg weekly market returns to its old location. Parking spaces will be available only on the right side of Schlossstraße, starting from the Nikolausstraße entrance.

The reopening of Schlossstraße will see vehicles using the newly redesigned shopping street from Nikolausstraße to the intersection with Gartenstraße. Traffic will be diverted via Gartenstraße onto Steinstraße towards Kölner Straße. This diversion will be managed by a traffic signal to ensure smooth flow of traffic.

It is important to note that the remaining construction work between Gartenstraße and Am Stockbrunnen will remain closed during this time. The one in Gartenstraße, however, will become usable again with the opening of Schlossstraße.

For those interested in updates about the construction work on Schlossstraße, a newsletter is available. You can sign up for this newsletter by sending an email to a specific email address. The city's websites provide all information about the InHK Bensberg, including the renovation of Schlossstraße.

Despite the search results not providing the name of the construction manager responsible for the renovation of Schlossstraße in Bensberg or involved in the early reopening of the street on Monday, September 1, 2025, it is clear that this is a significant step forward for the city.

Lastly, it is worth mentioning that the private underground garage in Schlossstraße will remain accessible. The one-way traffic rule will apply on Schlossstraße from Nikolausstraße.

As the city prepares for this change, residents and visitors alike are eagerly awaiting the return of the bustling market and the revitalised Schlossstraße.
