traffic

Heiligenloh is far away from heavy traffic. This increases the quality of living, especially since the distances to the next federal road and the next train station are not significant.

Street

Heiligenloh is 2.5 km north of the B 51 , which ensures the connection to the north ( Bremen ) and south ( Osnabrück ). Two district roads - the K 101 and the K 102 - cut through Heiligenloh. They lead directly to the neighboring towns of Natenstedt, Drentwede and Borwede. The road sections have names in the place; in detail these are:

  • the "main road" (= northern part of the K 101); it leads in a north-westerly direction to Natenstedt
  • the "main road" (= southern part of the K 101); it leads in a south-easterly direction to Rustingen, to the B 51 and on to Drentwede
  • the "Hermannstrasse" (= eastern part of the K 102); it leads east to Ellinghausen, to the B 51 and on to Borwede.

Names of the 17 Heiligenloher Streets (in alphabetical order): Alte Dorfstraße, Am Hang, Am Kiekbusch, Am Pfarrgarten, An der Henckemühle, Bockstedter Straße, Gartenstraße, Hauptstraße, Hermannstraße, Mühlendamm, Oderstraße, Parkstraße, Poststraße, Schulstraße, Vor dem Fang, Before Harms Holt, Zum Heiligenberg.

In contrast, in the smaller districts of Heiligenloh - Bissenhausen, Borwede, Ellinghausen, Ridderade and Stophel - there are no street names, only house numbers .
