A1: Scharbeutz exit blocked until 5 p.m.-diversions set up!

Lübeck, Deutschland - The A1 motorway is closed until 5 p.m. on July 16, 2025 due to a daily construction site at the Scharbeutz junction (Ostholstein district). The reason for this measure is renovation work that has become necessary after fire damage. The Autobahn GmbH branch north is carrying out this work, which is expected to continue today from 7 a.m. to around 5 p.m. What does that mean for drivers?

If you are traveling towards Lübeck and want to go to Scharbeutz, you should adjust to a diversion. The responsible bodies recommended the exit at the Pansdorf junction (Ostholstein district). After the Pansdorf exit, road users can change the direction of travel and drive back onto the A1. After that, it is possible to drive at the Scharbeutz junction towards Fehmarn. These detour options are clearly signposted, so that drivers can navigate well despite the construction.

In the current traffic situation, drivers are well advised to keep an eye on information about the traffic situation. The interactive dashboard on the website autobahn.de provides comprehensive insights into the nationwide and regional traffic situation. Here, both the longest traffic jams and the number of current construction sites can be called up quickly. Such information can help to consider alternative routes and to better assess the travel time.

The continuous monitoring of the traffic situation enables the motorway traffic center to react quickly to unpredictable disorders. The necessary measures can be quickly implemented by prepared action concepts that also include corridor strategies. The Autobahnos system supports the effective implementation.

Another tip for commuters and travelers in the region is to track the reporting on NDR . Daily updates via Lübeck as well as the adjacent districts of Ostholstein and Duchy of Lauenburg are available on NDR 1 Welle Nord at 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. So you make sure that you are always well informed and can plan possible delays.

The current work on the A1 is a challenge for many road users, but it is important to bring patience with you and to consider the proposed detours. Whether on the way to work or when reaching leisure activities, with the right information, the journey can also be made well in difficult times.
