Zimmermannstraße in Wiesbaden to Close for Power Cable Installation

Zimmermannstraße in Wiesbaden will close fully to vehicles from January 12 to late January. The shutdown allows for underground power cable installation. During this time, the usual one-way traffic system will also pause.

The roadworks will take place directly in front of number 10. While the closure is active, access to Zimmermannstraße will be rerouted via Dotzheimer Straße. Residents and local traffic coming from Bertramstraße must instead use Bleichstraße and Hellmundstraße to reach their destination.

The city has made an interactive map available online for further details on roadworks across Wiesbaden. This tool helps drivers and pedestrians plan alternative routes during the temporary disruption. Utility work of this kind is typically managed by regional network operators. In Wiesbaden, companies like ESWE Versorgungs AG often handle such projects, though specific project details have not been publicly confirmed.

The closure will remain in effect until the end of January. Drivers and residents should follow the designated detours to avoid delays. Additional updates on local developments in the Dotzheim district can be found through city news channels.
