From the start of operations on 14 June 2017, lines 2 and 24, which travel via Westanlage and Frankfurter Straße in the direction of the train station, will temporarily not stop at the "Selterstor" stop. The reason for this is the construction of a new residential and commercial building on the former C&A site in Westanlage. As part of the work required for this, the right-hand lane of the Westanlage will be closed to traffic in this area. As an exception, Stadtwerke Gießen (SWG) will not be setting up an alternative stop. "We are asking our passengers to use the nearby 'Liebigstraße' stop," explains Matthias Acker, deputy company spokesman for SWG.
The construction work and thus the closure of the lane in the Westanlage is scheduled to last seven months. At peak times, there are likely to be noticeable traffic delays in this area, which will also affect the timetables of the two lines. SWG therefore advises you to allow a little more time than usual.
