Modernisation of Brackwede main street
More mobility for all
We are planning the development of the main street in Bielefeld-Brackwede together with the City of Bielefeld.
Three elevated platforms will be constructed to provide barrier-free accessibility in public transport, as required by law. In addition, the StadtBahn tram platforms will be adapted for the future use of Vamos trams.
The aim is to modernise and develop the entire transport space for all users. Footpaths, cycle lanes, parking and bus stops will be reorganised to eliminate areas of conflict.
In June, tram line 1 returns to Brackwede. At the same time, there will be an improved bus service. You can find all the information here!
We are here for you

All information about current construction progress
New bus & tram concept
valid from 15 June 2025
Hauptstraße will be fully opened in mid-June. The StadtBahn line 1 will then also run to Brackwede again. At the same time, there will be an improved bus service with new line numbers:
- Direct connections will be maintained: with lines 23 and 41 from Jahnplatz or Sieker to Brackwede
- Line 40: every 30 minutes between Quelle (Fortunastraße) and Senne
- To the school with lines 23, 41, and 42
- Convenient transfer between bus and train: at the Normannenstraße stop
You will then be able to reach the shops and doctors' surgeries along the entire Hauptstraße by bus and train again without any restrictions.
