Key Points

From May 12 to August 2026, parts of the street will be periodically closed to car and bicycle traffic, Göteborgs stad said. During these closures, car and bicycle traffic will be diverted to surrounding streets. The city noted that accessibility will be limited but properties remain reachable, and pedestrians can pass and enter entrances, including with walkers and strollers.

The stone-setting and asphalt work may cause dust and noise during daytime, according to the municipality. The exact dates of the periodic closures and the specific construction details have not been disclosed.
