B103 near Kronskamp fully closed from today as third phase of works begins

The B103 near Kronskamp has been fully closed since today, 2 November 2026, as the third phase of works gets under way. The Stralsund Road Construction Authority has set up extensive diversions.

Since today, 2 November 2026, the B103 at Kronskamp is fully closed for the third and final phase of resurfacing. According to the Stralsund Road Construction Authority the closure extends from the junction of Daimler-Benz-Allee/Otto-Lilienthal-Allee to the junction with the B108. This section follows the works, carried out in several phases since September, between the Laage interchange on the A19 and the B108 junction.

The full closure is necessary because the carriageway is too narrow to allow the new surface to be laid safely while traffic is passing. A long diversion is signposted for through traffic: from Laage, it runs along the B108, via Diekhof and Glasewitz onto the L14, and via Güstrow back to the B103 towards Kritzkow. Access for local traffic will be restricted; the responsible authority will determine specific access arrangements on a case-by-case basis.

The roads authority describes the project as part of a phased programme to upgrade the B103. The aims are to improve the road’s load-bearing capacity over the long term, particularly for heavy goods vehicles, and to increase road safety. The state announced that the resurfacing would be carried out in three phases, each requiring a full closure. The second phase was nearing completion; the third phase, which has now begun, has a provisional target of November 2026. No precise end date has been announced.

Public transport is also affected. The regional operator rebus is adjusting routes and timetables around the roadworks. Passengers should check the latest traffic updates and alternative routes before travelling. The road authority recommends that commuters and delivery drivers allow extra journey time and follow the signposted diversions.

The current closure affects the area south of Kronskamp, where industrial estates and feeder roads converge. In particular, the junctions at Daimler-Benz-Allee and Otto-Lilienthal-Allee are impassable during the surfacing works. The traffic authority stresses that work of this kind can only be carried out effectively in stable weather; short-notice changes to the schedule are therefore possible. The Stralsund Road Construction Authority will provide regular updates on changes to traffic arrangements.

Once the third phase is complete, the main carriageway works between the Laage interchange on the A19 and the B108 junction are expected to be finished. Local finishing work and road markings will follow before the route can be fully reopened.
