Restriction Imposed on Rügen Bridge Access Delayed by a Few Days

Stralsund Alright, here's the lowdown on the Rügen Bridge situation

Anticipated Shutdown of Rügen Bridge Occurs in a Few Days - Restriction Imposed on Rügen Bridge Access Delayed by a Few Days

Hey there! Let's talk about the Rügen Bridge in Stralsund. Here's the deal:

Initially, they planned to have a full closure of the Rügen Bridge starting on the 7th of May. But guess what? They completed the preliminary renovation work ahead of schedule! Yep, they finished it earlier than planned, as confirmed by a spokesperson for the State Authority.

However, a full closure is still unavoidable for the resurfacing and asphalt works, and it'll start from next Tuesday, the 13th of May. This closure will last until the 5th of June, originally planned for a May 7th start.

But don't worry about getting stuck during Pentecost, mate. They're gonna open one lane on the Rügen Bridge between the 6th and 10th of June to avoid traffic chaos. After that, it'll shut down again until the 18th of June, before reopening partially. The works are projected to be done by the 25th of June.

Now, it's been about 18 years since the Rügen Bridge was in operation, so a renewal of the technology is a necessity, according to the State Authority. This year, there could also be traffic congestion on the island of Rügen due to the renovation of the federal road 96 between Kubbelkow and Bergen-Mitte. That stretch has been closed since Monday and is expected to stay closed until the 28th of May for asphalt renewal.

As for any updates on the Rügen Bridge closure, reopening, or renovation timelines in 2025, I couldn't find any official information. To get the most accurate and current information, I'd recommend checking the official website of the transportation authority in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern or local news sources.
