Roundabout on Hemdener Weg: Construction work begins on 16 November

From Monday 16 November 2026, construction work will begin on the new roundabout on Hemdener Weg at the junction with Paul-Henri-Spaak-Weg. Hemdener Weg will remain open to traffic throughout the construction period, with traffic lights at the roadworks site regulating the flow of traffic. The work is scheduled to be completed in autumn 2027.

The roundabout is being built at the junction of Paul-Henri-Spaak-Weg and Hemdener Weg. To ensure that traffic in the main direction of travel can flow continuously, a traffic light is in place to control traffic in the construction zone. Motorists should allow a little extra time, particularly during peak hours. Those familiar with the area can also take an alternative route.

The council is providing an alternative access route for residents of Paul-Henri-Spaak-Weg. This will allow them to access their properties and leave them again even whilst the construction work is underway. The drinks shop on Hemdener Weg will also remain accessible to customers throughout the entire construction period.

The City of Bocholt asks residents and anyone who regularly uses Hemdener Weg for their understanding regarding the restrictions during the construction period.
