Construction site chaos on the A4: Stammfahr in Bergisch Gladbach until July!

The traffic situation in North Rhine-Westphalia is currently shaped by several construction sites, which ensure considerable restrictions, especially on the A4. How [news.de] (https://www.news.de/auto/85865716/ Verkehrsordnung-nw-berg-gladbach-koeln-Rheinisch-Bergischer-Kreis-zur-verwegen-wegen-berrung-b Austelle-von-15-05-2025-bis-11-07-2025 Restrhen-traffic northern-Westphalia-stammer-in-Moitzfeld-Neu-Frankenforst-Kalk-A4-Rather-W/1/) reports, the highway from today, June 2 to July 11, 2025, is blocked in several places to renew the road surface. The sections affected are both in Bergisch Gladbach and in the Cologne area. These measures not only bring a new road, but also ensure increased traffic volume and potential traffic jams during this time.

Please have yourself ready, because the special situation concerns various sections:

• A4, Bergisch Gladbach (Moitzfeld): blocking from May 15 to June 2, 2025, with a total duration of the measures until November 30, 2025.
• Rather Weg, Bergisch Gladbach (Neu-Frankenforst): Similar restrictions also apply here.
• A4, Cologne (AS Köln-Merheim-as Refrath): also from May 15th to June 2, 2025.
• A4, Cologne (as Refrath - Röttgesberg): period the same as in the other sections mentioned.
• finally on Rather Weg in Neu-Frankenforst: This construction site continues after June 2 to July 11, 2025.

traffic loads inevitable

The renewal affects various sections, with the A4 a main traffic axis in NRW. In this context, the general traffic situation in North Rhine-Westphalia should also be considered. Verkehrslage.de shows that the A4 is not only affected by construction sites, but also has other restrictions, such as at the Talbrücke Wiehl, where lanes are narrowed and there are special weight restrictions. These measures are created by December 2034.

As noted by the Stummeder, NRW is the most populous federal state in Germany with 16.7 million inhabitants. Of course, this also increases the pressure on the traffic routes, especially during peak times. According to ADAC, construction sites are one of the main causes of traffic jams in NRW, which have increased more and more in recent years.

The combination of construction sites and the high density of traffic means that commuters and travelers often have to be stuck in the traffic jam and expect longer travel times. Therefore, it is advisable to plan alternative routes during this time and to start early.
