Road and Level Crossing Closures in Fürth and Zirndorf, July 21 to August 1, 2025
Prepare for traffic disruptions in the cities of Fürth and Zirndorf, as extensive construction work is scheduled from July 21 to August 1, 2025. The District Offices of both cities have announced the closures, which will affect road users and pedestrians alike.
In Zirndorf, the level crossing in Weiherhofer Hauptstraße will be fully closed to all traffic and pedestrians from July 21 to August 1. This closure is due to additional construction work, although the specific nature of the work has not been disclosed. Motorists should expect detours during this period, with the detour route signposted. Traffic and pedestrian disruptions are expected in the area during the closure period.
The District Office of Zirndorf has also announced a separate road closure on Beim Haderlach in the Weiherhof district. This road closure will cause traffic restrictions and likely congestion in the area.
In Fürth, the FU 16 road will be closed between Seckendorfer Straße/Roßendorfer Straße and Roßendorf from July 21 to August 1. This closure is also due to additional construction work, and motorists should expect detours during this period.
Meanwhile, in Fürth, the major construction at the Gebhardtstraße – Zähstraße intersection has been ongoing since July 7. This project aims to rebuild the traffic signal system and expand the intersection to improve traffic flow and safety. During the construction, one outbound lane remains open, and detours will be clearly signposted. Bus lines 37 and 112 run on this route, so expect potential alterations.
For the Zirndorf closures prior to July 11, an official detour is routed via Vogelherdstraße, Schwabacher Straße, FÜ 19, and Thomas-Mann-Straße in both directions. For the current Bei Haderlach closure (July 21–August 1), the precise detour routing is not detailed, but based on standard practice and previous detours in the area, traffic is likely rerouted onto nearby main roads such as Vogelherdstraße or Schwabacher Straße, or parallel local streets.
Drivers are advised to rely on local signage and traffic advisories for exact detours during these disruptions. It is also recommended to check the VGN website for up-to-date route changes during this period.
In summary: - Fürth: Partial lane closure with posted detours on and around Gebhardtstraße – Zähstraße intersection from July to late September 2025. - Zirndorf: Full road closure on Beim Haderlach (Jul 21–Aug 1) with detours likely using main connecting streets; exact detours not specified but probably through Vogelherdstraße and Schwabacher Straße or parallel routes.
Drivers should consult local traffic signs and VGN updates for precise detour guidance during these disruptions.
In the other industry of public-transit, transportation disruptions may occur on bus lines 37 and 112 in Fürth due to ongoing construction at the Gebhardtstraße – Zähstraße intersection. Motorists in the Zirndorf area might also find financial implications when faced with increased fuel consumption from the detours due to the closures on Beim Haderlach and Weiherhofer Hauptstraße.
