Mörfelder Landstraße – Frankfurt

Mörfelder Landstraße, bicycle route 3.BA

Main works

The present construction project is the Mörfelder Landstraße bicycle route between the Otto-Fleck-Schneise and the Flughafenstraße.
This section is the last part of the overall route Mörfelder Landstraße, which runs between the Otto-Fleck-Schneise (connection to the Hessian long-distance bicycle path R 8) and the Oppenheimer Landstraße in Frankfurt am Main and is part of the overall urban bicycle traffic network.
The sections between Flughafenstraße and Oppenheimer Landstraße have already been expanded and equipped.
The last construction section, which is still open, has a length of 1,490 metres. Of this, no alterations are required over a distance of around 550 metres.
The section runs along the Mörfelder Landstraße (B 44 / B 43) from the junction of the Otto-Fleck-Schneise.
Subject of this tender are earthworks, drainage and road construction works as well as civil engineering works for the Office for Information and Communication Technology (Department 16) and the Road Traffic Office (Department 36). The drainage measures primarily include infiltration facilities.
