Traffic chaos in Hamburg: A7 locked during Ed Sheeran and Schlagermove!

in Hamburg this weekend is all about music and celebrations - but at the same time there is a risk of massive traffic chaos. On Friday evening, July 4th, a full closure of Autobahn 7, which will last until Monday morning, 5 a.m. This measure affects the section between Hamburg-Stellingen and Hamburg-Heimfeld in both directions and is necessary due to the new building of the tunnel control center and the assembly of traffic sign bridges. According to ndr the Elbtunnel is also affected.

At this moment, when everyone is talking about the turnaround, the closure meets a greatly increased volume of traffic. Hamburgourists and locals should be prepared for a turbulent journey, because in parallel to the construction sites, Ed Sheeran and the Schlagermove continue the traffic density. Ed Sheeran will appear on the days of the 4th, 5th and 6th July in the Volksparkstadion, where a total of around 150,000 fans are expected. Also Mo-Po reports on the parallel events that are transformed into a true festive mile.

diversions and arrival recommendations

The transport companies advise the drivers to various diversions: from the south to the Horster Dreieck to the A1 and a dangling via the B205 back to the A7. Anyone who sets off from the north will also be diverted via the B205 from the Neumünster-Süd. Inner -city diversions are also signposted to keep the delays in the framework.

The organizers even recommend the car: use of public transport is the wiser choice. The S-Bahn lines S3 and S5 to the Stellingen stop and bus line 22 to Hellgrundweg are the best options to get to the stadium. The FKP Scorpio Group also announces a solution for arrival and departure problems in the coming week.

a celebration for the masses

On Saturday, the Schlagermove will provide a high mood from 3 p.m. and with around 400,000 expected celebrants from the Heiligengeistfeld over several streets to its origin. It should also be noted that on the same day a caravan from 50 trucks rolls through the city center from 12 p.m. The streets along this route will be blocked from around 12 noon, which will also increase traffic volume.

In addition, the Glacishaussee will be completely closed from Friday evening at 7 p.m. to Sunday morning, 7 a.m. If you plan to go to the city, you should definitely get started in order to escape the traffic challenges for the holiday season in Lower Saxony and Bremen, which will start on Thursday, as well as the other federal states that follow on Friday.

In order to get clarity about all closures and diversions, a visit to the website of the corresponding organizers and the Hamburg traffic authorities is recommended, which provide regularly updated information. The challenge of overcoming traffic craze could turn out to be exciting for everyone involved - in the sense of "Have fun celebrating and good nerves while driving".
