Vienna in construction site fever: This summer continues!
Wien, Österreich - Vienna faces a hot summer when it comes to construction sites. From June, numerous infrastructure projects begin that not only affect the tracks, but will also improve bridges and cycle paths. This heats the construction activity in the city again, and many Viennese have to adapt to diversions and traffic impairments. There were already a large number of construction sites last year, and now the situation is further tightened by the track construction offensive of the Viennese lines and renovation work of the ÖBB. MeinDägkurz reports on the most important major projects and work in summer 2025.
A central point will be the renovation of the Brigittenau bridge , which starts on July 1st. This important traffic artery connects the 20th and 21st district and is repaired over a total of 281 meters. There are ten lane transition constructions on the test bench. The work is done in several phases, so that a lane always remains open and foot and bicycle traffic can be largely maintained. The theses are scheduled for May 2026, as well as informs the press .
extensive track construction work
From June 24th, track renovations on the Carinthian ring and on Schwarzenbergplatz begin. The soft is also exchanged here, while only two or lane are available on the ring and space. The track construction work in the area of the university ring begins a month later and are also redesigned at the Parliament stop. This work should be completed by August 24, such as notes.
The tram line 43 is stopped between June 16 and August 31, which affects the route from the Schottentor to Zimmermannplatz in particular. Sensual diversions can also be expected here. The flow of traffic is temporarily severely hindered at the intersections, and a wide variety of construction sites drive up the traffic jams. In the Margaret belt, track construction work is also planned in July and August, with a special focus on the right Vienna line.
new cycling infrastructure and other projects
Special attention is paid to the improvement of the cycle paths in summer. Between July and September, a new combined walking and bike path from Tepserngasse to the Friedensbrücke will be built. The work on Altmannsdorfer Straße and Anton-Baumgartner-Straße are also being planned, and a new bike crossing at the Hernalser Gürtel-Gebrengasse intersection is created. This initiative should help to make cycling in Vienna safer and more pleasant, according to the city press.
In addition, there are also continued work on the Vienna Channel on the Hernals Belt, where a 120 meter long sewage pipe is renovated. These measures are part of a comprehensive package to improve the infrastructure in Vienna. Julius-Standler-Platz will be redesigned with more green areas, and the redesign project on Wagramer Strasse will be completed in July
As construction site coordinator Christian Zant emphasizes, it is important that road users spend patience and adapt to the changed conditions. The large variety of construction sites and renovations promise long -term improvements, even if this temporarily leads to more traffic jams. Further information is available on bauste.wien.at
