Cars and trams will bypass Leipziger Straße, receiving dedicated lanes for smoother traffic flow.
In the heart of Dresden-Pieschen, a significant construction project is underway. The aim is to replace worn-out switches on Stern Street, affecting tram lines 4, 9, and 13.
From October 1st to October 16th, these tram lines will experience changes due to the construction. Tram line 13 will terminate at Friedens Street in the Neustadt and become line 4 there. Lines 9 and 13 will be replaced between Friedens Street and Kaditz by buses of line EV13.
During the construction, bus replacement services will be in operation from Kaditz to Mickten. The Mickten stop on line 64 will be served by these replacement services for lines 9 and 13.
Tram line 4 will not run its full route from Laubegast to Prohlis during the construction. Instead, it will run from Laubegast to Anton-/Leipzig Street, then via Großehainer Street to Fritz-Reuter Street, becoming line 13 and going to Prohlis. The replacement service EV4 will be extended from Weinböhla to Anton-/Leipzig Street.
Cars can continue their journey towards the city centre, but will be rerouted via Rehefelder and Wurzner Street during the construction. The detours for tram lines 4, 9, and 13 will apply from the start of construction until October 16th, 3 AM.
The Dresden Public Transportation Authority (DVB) is responsible for the construction, which is expected to be completed by October 16th, 3 AM, restoring normal service.
It is advisable to consult Dresden's local transportation authority's official website or announcements closer to the specified dates for the most accurate and detailed travel advisories. The construction on Leipzig Street in Dresden-Pieschen begins on Friday.

The construction project in Dresden-Pieschen affects not only the public-transportation sector, particularly trams 4, 9, and 13, but also the industry and finance, as the disruption might impact businesses in the area.
The Dresden Public Transportation Authority (DVB), in charge of the construction, operates a temporary bus replacement service, lines EV4 and EV13, to account for changes in transportation within the affected tram routes during the construction.
