Overview
- Construction started August 4 on the north segment between Sendlinger Tor and Goetheplatz as cyclists’ lanes were repositioned onto the carriageway leaving one traffic lane per direction.
- A full closure for resurfacing is set for August 22–24 while traffic remains mostly uninterrupted on other days.
- Removal of 12 of 70 parking spaces creates room for widened bike paths and sidewalks, aiming to give the street a boulevard character.
- City council remains divided over the roughly €17 million price tag, with the SPD-Greens coalition weighing budget concerns and the CSU faction warning of gridlock.
- After completing the northern stretch by September 19, the project will roll into the central and southern sections later this year as part of Munich’s sustainable mobility plan.
