Preliminary work completed

Reschenstraße closed again for construction of gallery

Preparatory work for the construction of the 400-metre-long Kanzelgalerie on the Reschenstraße (B180) between Pfunds and Nauders has been underway since August. From October 8, the road will be completely closed in this area. What this means for drivers and what the state promises for the winter season. 

The state is building the 400-metre-long Kanzelgalerie on the Reschenstraße (B180) in a critical area between Pfunds and Nauders. This should significantly improve safety.

Work began at the start of August. The first part of the daytime closures was used to carry out preparatory work for the rock removal, according to an interim report. This involved safety measures for the subsequent construction phase and laying the foundations for new rockfall protection fences.

Long vehicles have to take a wide detour
The next construction phase starts on Tuesday, October 8. The Reschenstraße between Pfunds and Nauders will be closed to all traffic until December 20. Vehicles with larger trailers (over 6.5 meters) and buses over 13 meters in length will have to take a wide detour. All other vehicles and local public transport (bus routes 210 and 273) will be routed via Engadiner Strasse and Martinsbrucker Strasse and therefore partly via Swiss territory.

State promises: no restrictions in winter
"During the winter season, traffic can once again be routed across the construction site in two lanes without any restrictions," the state promises. From May 2025, traffic will be routed through the construction site in one lane with traffic lights.
