Seven weeks of roadworks to disrupt travel on Staatsstraße 2119 in Thal

Major roadworks will begin soon on Staatsstraße 2119 in Thal, affecting travel for nearly seven weeks. The project, set to run from March 24 to May 8, 2026, will focus on renovating a key stretch between Am Park and Schreiberbrunnen in the Aue section. Drivers and commuters are being warned to expect delays during this period.

The construction will reduce the road to a single lane, controlled by temporary traffic lights. This setup aims to keep traffic moving but will likely slow down journeys.

To help residents and workers cope, local authorities have arranged alternative transport options. Shuttle buses will connect Thal with nearby towns, while bike rental schemes and carpooling apps are being promoted. These measures are designed to ease congestion and provide practical solutions for daily travel. The work is scheduled to finish by early May, with full road access expected to resume shortly after completion.

The roadworks will bring temporary disruption, but the improvements aim to enhance the route long-term. Until May 8, drivers are advised to plan extra time or use the provided alternatives. Local transport services and shared travel options will remain available throughout the construction period.
