A1 drama in Bargteheide: 30 hours of complete closure due to bridge construction!
The full closure of the A1 at the Bargteheide motorway junction was ended early. Originally announced from Saturday, October 25th, 2 p.m. to Sunday, October 26th, 8 p.m., the closure was lifted early due to construction work to build a new bridge on the A21 over the A1. Loud NDR The work began in May 2024 and lasted several months.
The roadways are currently accessible again from around 1:30 p.m. with two lanes in each direction. The Buddikate Ost rest area will also be fully available again, which should be a relief for many travelers. During the closure, road users had to use alternative routes as both the A1 in the north direction and the A21 in the Hamburg direction were affected. Detours were signposted using a colored dot system to make orientation easier.
Progress of construction work
Despite the early lifting of the closure, it should be noted that there will continue to be restrictions in the area of the motorway junction in the coming weeks. The construction site and traffic facilities are now being dismantled, which could result in some temporary traffic disruptions. The Lübeck management reported that the final work on the new bridge is expected by the end of the year, weather permitting.
The construction projects around the A1 are part of a broader program to improve the transport infrastructure in northern Germany. This is what it is Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure active, which provides an interactive bridge map. This enables users to find out about different bridge structures and view the respective construction projects.
All road users are advised to prepare for potential traffic disruptions in the coming weeks and to follow the signposted detours carefully. Thanks go to the construction workers and traffic planners who worked to maintain traffic as best as possible despite the renovation work.
