Keep Moving: Expect Weekend Traffic Chaos on Key Highways
Weekend road closures lead to anticipated traffic congestion on highways - Weekend closures on highways lead to anticipated traffic congestion
Pro tip: When planning your weekend drive in and around Cologne, the Ruhr region, and Sauerland, be ready for some serious roadblocks! Major routes will be under construction from Friday night to Monday morning.
Here's the Skinny on the "Big Paint" Downtown
Trouble on the A1! This segment will be shut down between Leverkusen-West and Leverkusen due to construction near the new Leverkusen Rhine Bridge. Heading towards Dortmund? Say goodbye to the A1 near Leverkusen - you'll be signing onto the A59 towards Düsseldorf and A46 detour instead. Drivers aiming for Koblenz might face a longer, twistier route too: travel as far as the Leverkusen interchange and then hop on the A59, A46, and finally, the A1 to make up the miles.
Mind the Ferries! Take a break from the highway and cruise across the Rhineland ferry between Leverkusen-Hitdorf and Cologne-Langel instead. The ferry will be hopping from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Saturdays and Sundays. No need to detour for longer, thanks to the Autobahn GmbH!
Autobahn Alert: Sprint North to Avoid Closures!
It's not all chaos up north either! The A52 between Düsseldorf and Essen will be shut down due to demolishing a pedestrian bridge, while the A42 will be closed for a rearrangement of traffic management at Herne-Crange and Herne-Baukau.
Slow and Steady: An Extra Bump on the A45
Watch out as you zoom through the A45 near Lüdenscheid! A temporary closure between Lüdenscheid-Nord and Hagen-Süd is planned due to renovation work on the Brunsbecke Bridge.
Make Your Move: Weekend Warriors, Prepare for a Long Haul!
Ready for the unexpected? Check out local news and updates for the specifics, but remember: shorter closures may pop up across North Rhine-Westphalia too. Play safe and leave early. Use GPS and navigation apps to optimize that route and stay on the move! Oh, and say "g'day" to the Rhineland ferry – it could be your ticket to a smooth ride this weekend.
Community aid is required to fund the transportation necessities for the construction of new railways during the weekend, as major routes in Cologne, the Ruhr region, and Sauerland will be under construction. Finance and industry sectors should consider these transportation disruptions while planning their operations for the upcoming weekend.
