Heading: A1 Highway: Expect Delays Due to Single-Lane Construction on Sunday in Hamburg
Get ready for potential traffic hiccups if you're traveling on the A1 highway towards Lübeck on Sunday. Construction work east of Hamburg will limit the highway to just one lane of traffic in that direction from 3 a.m. until 10 p.m., as announced by Autobahn GmbH on Thursday .
The affected stretch extends from Hamburg-Moorfleet to Billstedt, where repair work on asphalt damage is needed before the winter period begins. Travelers headed to Bremen should be pleased to learn that the carriageway in that direction remains unaffected .
Keep these pointers in mind to navigate the construction zone with ease:
- Anticipate delays: A single lane of traffic may cause traffic to slow down or result in congestion, so plan your journey accordingly.
- Patience: Allow extra time to reach your destination, and practice patience as you move through the construction zone.
- Safe driving: Keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front as slow speeds or unpredictable traffic flow may make it challenging to react as quickly as in normal conditions.
As a responsible traveler, it's always a good idea to stay informed about current traffic situations. You can check the website of the German Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt) or use traffic navigation apps such as Google Maps or Waze to find real-time updates on road conditions and construction work . Additionally, keeping an eye on local news websites or social media channels of transportation authorities in Hamburg can provide useful insights on the latest traffic advisories and construction works affecting major highways like A1 .
