Construction site chaos on the A1: Vechta has to use diversions from today!

Bakum, Deutschland - In the district of Vechta, traffic disruptions on the A1 has been expected since June 13, 2025. The reason for this is construction site work that lasts until June 16, 2025.

The work that is carried out on the A1 near Bakum at Essener Straße begins daily at 10:00 p.m. and end on the morning of June 16 at 5:00 a.m. The Vechta exit, which is closed during this time, is also affected. Car drivers are therefore advised to carefully observe the redirect signage in order to avoid any traffic jams. In times of rush hour traffic, traffic flows can occur.

traffic forecasts and other measures

as Verkehrsinformation.de notes, such restrictions on the A1 that extends from Hamburg to the Ruhr area are not unusual. Especially in the summer months, increased traffic is often expected. As already confirmed by past projects, the construction work in Lower Saxony can have a negative impact on the traffic situation. It is therefore important to find out more about alternative routes.

In addition, KFZ.NET indicates that the condition of the Lower Saxony roads is usually good, but can often be expected at peak times and during the holidays. The A1 between Hamburg and Bremen in particular is a frequent hub.

For everyone who planned to use the A1 motorway, it is important to bring patience with you. The ongoing bridge work is part of extensive renovation work, which serve not only the infrastructure, but also the safety of road users. If you are traveling at the weekend or in the evening, you should have the situation in mind and be ready to plan a little more time.
