History: The old buildings in the Eschweiler city center, north of the Inde and largely spared from war damage, and the traffic routes there were classified as inadequate in the 1950s. For this reason, an urban development and traffic concept corresponding to the ideas of the time was designed with the core of Indestrasse as a wide east-west street with two-way lanes and federal highway status along a flood-free Inde that was to be straightened . The basis for the new building was a conversion and expansion agreement between the city and the Rhineland Regional Council in July 1962 . The planning, which was ready for construction in December 1963, was approved by the Federal Ministry of Transport in June 1965 . In March 1966, construction of the new Indestrasse began in section 1a; On April 14, 1966, an excavator excavation at the corner of Steinstrasse and Mühlenstrasse initiated a small ceremony . Construction section 2 began in December 1972, section 3 in January 1977 together with the new town hall and section 4 in March 1980. The 14-year accident-free work was completed in September 1980. Approx. 75,000 m³ of soil were moved and 30,000 t of black ceiling material were laid. Together with the 2.9 million DM for the embankment walls of the Inde, the total costs amounted to 9.2 million DM. The federal government contributed around 66%, the state with 18% and the city with 16%.

The work on the Inde took place from April 1961 to December 1979; Also involved was the "Upper Inde Association" (since January 1, 1979, "Water Association Obere Inde and Vicht", today merged into the " Water Association Eifel-Rur "). The new employment office was occupied in January 1964, the bus station was the first in the Aachen district to go into operation in March of the same year (both construction phase 1) and the New Town Hall was inaugurated in August 1979.

The length of the upgraded route is around 2.7 km, the total carriageway width 13 m and the total traffic area width on average around 24 m. There are a total of 180 parking spaces for cars and 10 bus bays.
