Traffic chaos in Göttingen: traffic jams expected until Friday!
Due to numerous construction sites, there are currently chaotic traffic conditions in Göttingen until October 24, 2025. Traffic jams on the access roads are the rule and the situation is unlikely to improve in the coming days. Particularly affected are the federal highway 27 between the Autobahn 7 and the Lutteranger exit in the direction of Weende, where there has been a complete closure since Monday morning. These measures pose major challenges for many drivers.
Traffic is severely restricted on several roads, including the new and old federal highway 3, Holtenser Landstraße, Hagenweg, Kasseler Landstraße and Maschmühlenweg. The Maschmühlenweg in particular is particularly stressful, as cars only move at a snail's pace into the city. Anyone coming from Bovenden is often forced to look for alternative routes or ask relatives to pick them up. However, these diversions are no less problematic because they also lead to traffic jams, as the current situation on Hannoversche Straße in Alt-Weende and Karl-Grüneklee-Straße shows.
Traffic problems until Friday
The traffic problem in Göttingen is expected to last until Friday, which will place a lot of demands on drivers. The official detour set up by the city runs through the city, making driving a game of patience. In the past, the city of Göttingen has repeatedly pointed out the importance of timely notices of construction sites in order to warn residents and commuters. But it is now clear that high road utilization and the complexity of the situation are presenting a large number of drivers with unexpected challenges.
Another factor are the accident reports on Autobahn 7, especially between Nörten-Hardenberg and Göttingen-Nord. Traffic was able to be rerouted here, but any incident causes additional delays and inconveniences.
