Construction site chaos in Munich: Garmischer Straße closed immediately!
The traffic situation in Munich will be a real challenge in the coming weeks and months. From October 27, 2025 to January 9, 2026 there will be extensive restrictions on Garmischer Straße. This construction work is necessary to renew the district heating network. The affected route stretches over 154 meters from the Friedenheimer Bridge towards Theresienwiese, between B2R, Garmischer Straße and Landaubogen. Loud [news.de](https://www.news.de/auto/859081300/verkehrsmelde-muenchen-zur-verkehrsstoerung-wegen-baustelle-sperrung-einschraenkung-von-27-10- 2025-until-09-01-2026-restrictions-in-traffic-congestion-risk-in-munich-zip-code-81373-sendling-westpark-7-2-hansapark-on-garmischer-strasse/1/) Drivers must expect increased traffic volumes and possible traffic jams.
Today's traffic forecasts already give a foretaste of what commuters will face. The risk of traffic jams is the order of the day and anyone who wants to move in this area should allow enough time. This is not the first time that Munich has experienced such extensive construction work, and the city has proven time and again in recent years that it has a good hand when it comes to large infrastructural projects.
More construction sites in view
In addition to the work on Garmischer Straße, there are also other construction sites that influence mobility and traffic in the metropolitan region. The construction of the new railway overpass on Lindwurmstrasse will begin in mid-March 2024 and will last until August 2028. This means that Lindwurmstrasse between Poccistrasse/Ruppertstrasse and Implerstrasse can currently only be used in one direction. From October 20, 2025, the underpass will be completely closed to all types of traffic, including pedestrians and cyclists. A free shuttle bus will be set up during the closure to take pedestrians safely from A to B, as the city of Munich describes in detail on its website stadt.muenchen.de.
There are also diversion options for cyclists via Bavariastrasse and it is recommended to make larger detours via Isartalstrasse/Schäftlarnstrasse. This once again shows the complexity of Munich's road network and the challenges associated with the ongoing construction work.
Outlook on projects in the region
A look into the future shows that infrastructural measures will not stop in the Munich metropolitan region. Numerous projects are planned for the region in 2024, primarily relating to mobility. According to a Statista study, the planning and implementation of new transport projects will be a top priority in order to meet the city's growing demands.
Munich is changing, and these construction sites are part of a larger plan to increase the quality of life in the city and create a modern transport system. Even if there are restrictions, citizens can look forward to sustainable improvement. On top of that, every road user should be patient and plan watertight during this time. Because as the saying goes: It will be okay - you just have to hold on a little bit!
