Stachus construction site finally finished: normal tram service from September!
Things are back to normal at the Stachus in Munich, as the extensive construction site at the subway station has been completed as planned. Loud tz.de Tram traffic will resume in full from September 1, 2025. This will end the traffic restrictions that have been in place since the renovation work began in November 2024.
The final construction phase, which started on July 28, 2025, included the renewal of the track arches between Prielmayerstrasse and northern Sonnenstrasse. These measures particularly affect tram lines 20 and N20, whose timetables had to be adjusted during the construction period. The tracks of lines 19, 21, 27 and 28 were also renewed between Prielmayerstrasse and Elisenstrasse to improve the ride quality.
Contribution to traffic safety
A central goal of the renovation was to increase traffic safety. To achieve this, the crossing will be widened for pedestrians and cyclists, so that the width of the pedestrian crossing will now increase to 9 meters and the cycle path will increase to 3.5 meters. The associated traffic light system will also be renewed and equipped with tactile and acoustic signaling devices, such as sueddeutsche.de reported. This means that the needs of people with disabilities are also taken into account.
Despite the intensive construction work, two lanes for car traffic will remain. This measure is intended to minimize restrictions for drivers, even if the municipal utilities reduce lanes in the direction of Lenbachplatz from January 13, 2025. From the end of January, lanes between Elisenstrasse and Prielmayerstrasse will also be eliminated.
Outlook for future development
