Speed Checks Intensify Across Offenbach Region During "Speedweek"
In an effort to improve road safety and reduce high-speed driving, the Polizeipräsidium Südosthessen has announced intensified speed checks throughout the Offenbach region from August 4th to 10th, 2025. This initiative is part of the European ROADPOL Kontrollwoche "Speed," a broader Hessen-wide and Europe-wide campaign aimed at curbing speeding [1][2].
The speed checks are designed to enforce adherence to speed limits and reduce accidents caused by speeding. However, no specific detailed list of exact locations or streets within Offenbach for these controls has been provided in the available information [1][2][3].
Several known danger zones have been identified, including the L 3262 between Zeppelinheim and Buchschlag, which is a wildlife and accident hotspot, particularly between the railway line and the B 44 exit [4][5]. The L 3347, Ostheim towards Rosdorf, is a speed danger zone due to its railway crossing [6]. The L 2319 between Mainflingen and Aschaffenburger Straße, as well as the section not previously mentioned between the entrance to Mainflingen and the Aschaffenburger Straße, have been classified as wildlife danger zones [7][8].
The L 3445 between Langenselbold and Neuberg is an accident hotspot, with measurements being taken on this stretch on Wednesday, August 6th, 2025 [9]. For Saturday, August 9th, and Sunday, August 10th, 2025, control measures are planned on the A 66 near Hanau in the direction of Fulda in the area of a construction site [10]. On Monday, August 4th, 2025, a check will be conducted on the B 43a near Hanau in the direction of Dieburg before the Hanau-Hafen exit, a known speed danger zone according to the police [11]. On Thursday, August 7th, 2025, the L 2319 between the entrance to Mainflingen and the Aschaffenburger Straße will be monitored [12].
During this period, drivers in Offenbach should expect increased speed monitoring at various locations and are advised to strictly adhere to speed limits to avoid penalties.
In addition to the specific locations mentioned, these speed checks during "Speedweek" also apply to general-news areas in Offenbach, ensuring that other roads are monitored for excessive speed as well. Drivers should be on the lookout for additional weather-related factors that could affect road conditions and complicate speeding issues.
