New cycling route along L290 enters final planning phase with public input

A new cycling route is set to be built along State Road 290 (L290) between Ochsendorf and Neindorf. The project has reached an advanced planning stage, with local authorities preparing to share updates at an upcoming public meeting. Residents will also have the chance to shape the final design with their feedback.

The Lower Saxony Road Construction Authority is leading the project, working alongside five regional communities. Königslutter, Wolfenbüttel, Scheppach, Dornhausen and Räbke are all involved in planning, funding and securing land for the path. Each will coordinate construction in their respective sections and handle permits.

A variant analysis helped determine the final route alignment. Officials will now present the latest details at a public information session on **April 21 at 6:00 PM** at the Ochsendorf Fire Station, Am Sportplatz 2a. Attendees can review the plans and submit suggestions before construction begins. The session aims to gather local input to refine the design before work starts.

The bike path will connect Ochsendorf and Neindorf along the L290 once complete. The public meeting on April 21 will outline next steps and incorporate resident feedback. Construction timelines and further updates will follow after the session.
