Street closure in Stuttgart-Süd for upholstery repairs on Karl-Kloß-Straße
Karl-Kloß-Straße Closure Extended to Summer 2026
Resurfacing work on Karl-Kloß-Straße in Stuttgart-Süd, initially scheduled for the summer of 2023, has been postponed to the summer of 2026. The roadway sections will be replaced with deeper and more severely damaged surface layers during the closure period.
The closure of the street, which began in late July 2025, will continue to result in restrictions. Access to Karl-Kloß-Straße from Degerloch and Stuttgart-South will not be possible during the closure period. However, access to the Waldfriedhof and Dornhaldenfriedhof from Degerloch will be possible via Heinestraße.
The repair work is weather-related and weather-dependent, meaning it may be affected by adverse conditions. The Public Works Department apologises for any inconvenience caused by the necessary roadworks.
At present, no explicit information about the start and end dates, length of closure, or alternative detour routes can be found in the official Stuttgart press release. It is recommended to check local Stuttgart municipal or transportation authority websites for updated notices closer to the time, as this kind of detail may be released separately or updated periodically.
The repair work will take place during the school holidays in 2026, ensuring minimal disruption to local schools and commuters. The street closure will be signposted with local detours to help guide traffic.
The repair work on Karl-Kloß-Straße requires a more extensive repair than initially anticipated, necessitating the extension of the closure into the summer of 2026. The Public Works Department is working diligently to complete the repairs as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Despite the inconvenience, it is important to remember that these repairs are crucial for the long-term safety and maintenance of the road. The Public Works Department appreciates the patience and understanding of the local community during this time.
- The extended closure of Karl-Kloß-Straße has also impacted various industries in the area, as the closure period may affect the delivery of goods and services, especially in the finance and transportation sectors.
- To minimise disruptions during the summer of 2026, when the resurfacing work on Karl-Kloß-Straße is set to be completed, the officials are considering alternative options in the finance industry to provide temporary funding for improved transportation routes, potentially reinforcing alternate pathways in the weakest spots.
