Traffic chaos in Cologne: A1 closure on June 15th causes traffic jams!
The anticipation of a relaxing weekend could soon come to an abrupt end for some road users on the A1 around Cologne. How news.de reports, a major traffic closure is coming, impacting the highway between 9 p.m. June 15 and 5 a.m. June 16. The section of the A1 at the Cologne-West intersection is affected, especially the transition to the A4 in the direction of Heerlen/Aachen. The reason for this measure is urgent bridge work that is necessary to ensure long-term traffic safety.
During this period, increased traffic and potentially heavy traffic jams can be expected. Drivers should therefore plan their routes in good time and consider alternative routes if necessary.
Construction sites and diversions
In addition to the closure on the A1, other sections of the motorway will also be affected by construction sites.
