    Ring track removal in 2017

      The western ring track was part of the route with route number 1903, which was built in 1886 by the Braunschweig State Railway Company.

      Together with other routes around the city center of Braunschweig, it formed an almost ring-shaped railway system with several stations such as the southern main station, east station, north station and west station.

      The western part of the line was used for freight traffic, which received an important transshipment point at Westbahnhof and was only closed in the 1980s.

      The section that used to be connected to it in the north by a bridge will continue to be used to supply the central thermal power station and will be approached from the eastern railway lines.

        The northern ring track is characterized by tracks that are still in operation, technical facilities such as the thermal power station and the proximity to the university. The connection to the western ring track was created in 2016 with the new construction of the Oker Bridge.

        In the northern section, the ring track is of greater importance for recreational use due to the new development area. The urban district of the Northern Ring Area is currently clearly undersupplied with publicly accessible open and green spaces. The northern ring track axis is also of particular urban design significance as a continuous green element that offers connecting points for open space structures to be attached. On the one hand, it creates connections that can be made on foot or by bicycle between e.g. B. the individual university locations, on the other hand, it also has climate protection functions and leisure activities through the Nordpark. These should have a positive effect on the quality of life in the newly created quarter.
