Traffic chaos on the A1: road renewal causes massive traffic jams!
There are currently significant traffic restrictions on the A1 in Lower Saxony, especially in the Bühren and Bakum area. How [news.de](https://www.news.de/amp/auto/858953248/verkehrsmelde-buehren-bakum-landkreis-cloppenburg-landkreis-vechta-auf-a1-zur-verkehrsstoerung-w egen-roadway-renewal-from-15-09-2025-to-17-09-2025-restrictions-in-traffic-danger-of-congestion-in-Lower-Saxony-westerbuehren-plz-49685-plz-49456/1/) reported, work on road renewal will begin today at 7:00 p.m. and will last until September 17, 2025, 5:00 a.m. For the duration of the work, the roadway will be narrowed to a single lane, which may lead to increased traffic volumes and possible congestion.
The inspection takes place in a particularly affected area between Cloppenburg and Vechta, which extends from the 49685 to the 49456 postal code. The construction site could pose a challenge, especially for commuters and travelers, in the next few days.
Current traffic reports on the A1
- A1 Bremen → Hamburg: Ungesicherte Unfallstelle zwischen Dibbersen und Buchholzer Dreieck.
- A1 Dortmund → Münster: Ungesicherte Unfallstelle zwischen Ascheberg und Münster-Hiltrup, mehrere Fahrzeuge betroffen.
- A1 Osnabrück → Bremen: Ein 5 km langer Stau zwischen Dreieck Stuhr und Bremen-Arsten, vor der Baustelle.
These reports underline the current traffic situation, which is further exacerbated by several construction sites and accident sites. Road users should prepare for this and, if necessary, choose alternative routes to save time.
Increase in traffic jams in Lower Saxony
The current traffic disruptions are part of a larger trend that can be observed in Lower Saxony. According to vmz-niedersachsen, a total of 3,267 traffic jam events were registered in 2024, which means an increase of 14.7% compared to the previous year. The total length of the traffic jams was 15,710 km.
The main causes of the traffic jams are mainly construction sites and accidents - a circumstance that is reflected in the current situation on the A1. It is recommended to check the traffic situation before traveling and to follow recommended detours in the event of longer traffic jams.
Also worth reporting are the peaks in susceptibility to traffic jams, which occur particularly on public holidays and during holiday periods. A healthy traffic mix between a constant traffic flow and targeted construction sites is desired for the coming days so that travelers can reach their destination without any worries.
Given the upcoming construction sites and current traffic reports, it is advisable to keep a close eye on the route and remain flexible. In any case, keep an overview!
