Innovation Campus: Civil engineering work starts on Mühlheimer Straße
09.01.2026 – The connection between the Innovation Campus and Mühlheimer Straße is continuing to progress: preparatory work for the new final footpath and cycle path along Mühlheimer Straße will continue next week. To this end, civil engineering work will begin on the existing cycle path towards the city center. The current footpath along the Innovation Campus will be closed.
OPG Offenbacher Projektentwicklungsgesellschaft mbH points this out. Stadtwerke Offenbach's real estate company is entrusted with the project management and control of the construction measures.
At the end of last year, the existing fencing along the Mühlheimer Strasse site was dismantled as a first step. This was in preparation for further work on the future footpath and cycle path. From Monday, January 12, preparations will continue and civil engineering work will begin.
They include the laying of empty conduits and preparatory measures for the relocation of various supply and disposal lines. These must be relocated from the newly planned right-turn lane, which will lead from Mühlheimer Straße to the Innovation Campus in future, to the north into the new final footpath and cycle path. The existing pedestrian path between Ketteler Straße and Untere Grenzstraße will be closed from this point onwards. Pedestrians are asked to use the sidewalk on the opposite side.
From April 2026, the new final sidewalk and a new final cycle path with an accompanying green strip will be built, separated from the sidewalk. The northern edge of the new sidewalk along Mühlheimer Straße will also form the boundary of BioSpring's second building plot. In addition, a bus stop will be built in the direction of the city center. All of these things will already be in their final state for the Innovation Campus.
In addition, a temporary construction site access road will be built into the Innovation Campus project site. Traffic restrictions are therefore to be expected from April. The Stadtwerke Offenbach subsidiary INNO Innovationscampus Offenbach GmbH & Co KG, which has been commissioned to develop the INNO Campus, will provide comprehensive and early information about specific traffic changes associated with the construction of the future footpath and cycle path.
Work on the rainwater and wastewater sewer continued
Despite the wintry conditions, work on the rainwater and wastewater sewer near Mainstrasse has continued over the past few weeks. The sewer was laid last year at a depth of around six meters below the roadway and connected to the main municipal collector in Mainstrasse. The first 100 meters of the new sewers have already been laid. Work will continue as planned over the coming weeks.
