Old railway building on the Witten – Schwelm railway line in Asbeck

In 1934, the Witten – Schwelm ("Elbschetalbahn") railway was opened, and Asbeck continues to cut through it in a north-south direction. The Asbeck stop was used until 1979; In the early 1980s, the railway line was shut down. The 350 m long Klosterholz tunnel in the far south of the district belongs to the section of the Asbeck area . During the Second World War it was used by the Münster aircraft factory Ludwig Hansen & Co. as the underground relocation “Goldammer” - with the use of forced laborers - primarily for the repair of Messerschmitt Bf 109 fighter aircraft . The former Asbeck “station building” now serves as a residential building.

On January 1, 1970, the Volmarstein office was dissolved by the municipal regional reform ( law for the reorganization of the Ennepe-Ruhr district ) and the old Asbeck farmers were incorporated into the town of Gevelsberg. Only a small proportion of the area (five parcels in the border area) was reclassified to Sprockhövel.

The south of Asbeck is crossed by the Federal Motorway 1 ; the next junction “Gevelsberg” is east of Asbeck in the Silschede district. The national road 702 in the West Asbecks combines Gevelsberg with Rennebaum (Sprockhövel-Hiddinghausen). It is the only street within the district with significant traffic.

Asbeck is connected to the public transport network by the VER bus route 552, which connects Gevelsberg via Silschede with Wetter-Loh (southern Volmarstein ) .
