Traffic chaos in Munich: Leonrodstrasse closed until September 19th!

The next construction site is just around the corner in Munich, and not without impact on traffic. From today, September 3, 2025, drivers and cyclists on Leonrodstrasse in the Neuhausen-Nymphenburg district must expect narrowings and restrictions. The construction work being carried out on the district heating network extends over a length of 220 meters and will last until September 19, 2025, 3:00 p.m. Loud [news.de](https://www.news.de/amp/auto/858918547/verkehrsmelde-muenchen-zur-verkehrsstoerung-wegen-baustelle-sperrung-einschraenkung-von-01- 09-2025-to-19-09-2025-restrictions-in-traffic-congestion-risk-in-munich-zip-code-80636-neuhausen-nymphenburg-ebenau-9-6-on-leonrodstrasse/1/) Impairments to traffic flow are to be expected, but pedestrian and bicycle traffic will be guided past the construction site.

Leonrodstrasse is considered an important traffic artery in this area, so commuters and drivers should be prepared for possible traffic jams and delays. The Munich city council is thus following the necessary maintenance measures that help keep the road network in good condition. These measures are part of a larger context, as new construction and expansion activities are necessary due to high traffic demand, as stmb.bayern.de reports.

Efficient construction site management

In order to minimize the impact of such construction projects on traffic, the city of Munich has introduced modern construction site management, which has been in force since May 2022. This system enables early planning and coordination of larger construction projects. Over 40,000 notices regarding construction sites are issued every year, which illustrates the complexity of coordination. According to muenchenunterwegs.de, there is a small core team in the mobility department that primarily takes care of construction sites in the city center and along the main road network.

The digital system for coordinating construction sites is intended to increase transparency. A construction site map, which is being created in collaboration with the digital twin project team in the municipal department, will soon be available online. This means that citizens can view the current construction sites in the city at any time and prepare accordingly for traffic disruptions.

These measures show how seriously the city of Munich takes the coordination and planning of its construction sites. The authority emphasizes that maintaining and improving the infrastructure has top priority in order to meet future challenges in the transport sector.
