Traffic chaos around Braunschweig: Several motorway sections closed!
In the region around Braunschweig you have to be careful: several sections of the motorway will be closed from today, June 13, 2025, due to repairs to damaged guard rails. The federal Autobahn GmbH has urgently called for caution in view of prominent traffic disruptions. The A391, A36 and A39 motorways are particularly affected. Unfortunately, there are delays for commuters and travelers who want to travel through this affected area. So patience is required these days!
On Tuesday, June 17th, drivers will have to make some assumptions. The exit from the A391 to the A392 in the direction of Celler Straße will be completely closed between 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. In addition, traffic disruptions will occur on the A36 in the direction of Braunschweig from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. between Wolfenbüttel-Süd and Wolfenbüttel-Nordwest and then from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. between Braunschweig-Stöckheim and Braunschweig-Melverode. On the A39 towards Kassel, traffic can come to a standstill between 8 a.m. and 12 p.m. between the Salzgitterhüttenblick service area and the Salzgitter-Watenstedt junction.
Planned closures next week
Disruptions will continue on Thursday June 19th. On the A39 towards Braunschweig there may be disruptions between Fallersleben and Wolfsburg-Mörse-Süd between 9 and 11 a.m. There will also be restrictions between various junctions on the A36, which leads towards Harz, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. It is advisable to check the current information about the traffic situation in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises.
Keep an eye on traffic information
In order to reduce unplanned waiting times on the road, drivers can access interactive dashboards such as autobahn.de. This tool provides information about the current traffic situation on federal highways and keeps users up to date about traffic jams and construction sites. The central information is continuously recorded, making it easy to get a quick overview of the traffic situation. Another tool, such as the Staumelder-Map, helps to get an overview of current traffic jams in real time.
By the way, there is an increased risk of traffic jams, especially during the holiday season. It is always worth adjusting your trip planning accordingly. Experienced travelers know that roads often get crowded, especially on Mondays and Fridays, and try to plan their trips around these times.
In conclusion: If you check traffic information before driving and allow a little more time, you can keep your nerve and maybe even enjoy the landscape while driving from traffic jam to traffic jam.
