Traffic chaos in Munich: Candidstrasse closed due to construction site!

In Munich today, June 4th, 2025, it will be temporarily crowded on Candidstrasse. From June 3rd, 9:25 p.m. until 4:00 a.m. today, the road will be closed for 44 meters due to construction work. This measure affects the section between B2R, Brudermühlbrücke and Schönstraße in the Untergiesing-Harlaching district, more precisely in the direction of the Mittlerer Ring. Road users and residents must expect the possible risk of traffic jams, as the Bavarian Traffic Management Central Office reports. Anyone staying in this area should be prepared for unpleasant delays and possibly choose an alternative route. News.de reports on the current traffic disruption.

But the construction site on Candidstrasse is not the only measure that affects Munich's streets. On Isartalstrasse, also in the popular Ludwigsvorstadt-Isarvorstadt district, the Munich public utility company is carrying out work on the supply network. Restrictions on sidewalks and roadways are expected here until the end of July, although car traffic as well as pedestrians and cyclists can bypass them. Anyone traveling on Josef-Felder-Straße in Pasing-Obermenzing must also be prepared for restrictions: Due to the U5 extension, the roadway will be reduced to one lane in both directions. Access to the Pasing arcades from the east is currently not possible. The city of Munich keeps citizens informed about construction sites.
