Construction work in Eving: diversions and replacement services for the U41

DSW21 modernises the light rail line, DEW21 expands the heating network - for more reliability and a sustainable supply in Dortmund.

From 1 September, DSW21 is carrying out an important construction project on Evinger Straße together with DEW21. While DEW21 expands the district heating network, DSW21 is renewing the tracks and points of the U41 underground line. The construction work will last until 19 September and has been deliberately bundled in order to avoid double closures.

Period and closures

The construction work will run from 1 to 19 September 2025.

Two sections of Evinger Straße will be completely closed: north of the Evinger Straße/Dammstraße/Lütge Heidestraße junction and south of the Evinger Straße/Grävingholzstraße/Kemminghauser Straße junction.

The road will remain open in between.

A wide diversion is signposted and leads via Dammstraße - Burgholzstraße - Osterfeldstraße - Lüdinghauser Straße - Kemminghauser Straße.

Effects on the U41

Light rail transport is guaranteed almost throughout. Only on three days - from 7 to 9 September - will there be a rail replacement service with buses between Fredenbaum and Brambauer Verkehrshof.

During rush hour, buses will run every 10 minutes, otherwise every 15 minutes.

Some stops will be cancelled without replacement, others will be connected via replacement stops in the vicinity.

For passengers with reduced mobility, there are barrier-free boarding points at Brambauer Verkehrshof and Fredenbaum. If necessary, a special vehicle can also be requested.

Bus services and night express

The NE1, NE2 and NE22 lines will also have to be diverted during the entire construction period. Some stops will be cancelled, while alternative stops will be set up for others.

Information for residents

To ensure that the construction work can be completed quickly, work will also be carried out at night on some nights - naturally only with authorisation. The houses and buildings will remain accessible at all times. Residents will be informed in good time.
