Rigistrasse Renovation: Weekday Closures Ahead in Weggis

Starting October 27, the Rigistrasse section in Unter Sänterberg, Weggis, will undergo significant renovations. The road will be closed on weekdays due to construction work, affecting both traffic and hiking trails near me in the area.

The renovation, expected to last until the end of 2025, will include repairing the road surface and french drain systems. Several roadside collapses on the valley side have made it dangerous for wider vehicles, particularly trucks. Temporary road plates will allow partial access outside of working hours and on weekends.

The work schedule is from 7:15 to 12:00 and from 13:00 to 17:15 on weekdays. Residents and road users are advised to pay attention to construction traffic and signals, and to show understanding for any disruptions. The hiking trails in this section will be rerouted during the renovation period. The progress of the work may be weather-dependent, with potential postponements in case of bad weather.

For information on the specific entity overseeing and planning the Rigistrasse renovations, contact local authorities or administrative bodies. The renovation is expected to improve road safety and drainage, benefiting both residents and road users. Temporary access arrangements are in place to minimize inconvenience.
