🚧 Whoa there, commuters! Construction on the A7 temporary bridge, located southwest of Kiel, is in full swing 🚧
Tick-tock on that temporary bridge assembly! Just south of Kiel, you'll find a team hard at work assembling a new bridge over Autobahn 7. Unfortunately, that means the route is fully closed nearby at Bordesholm. By Saturday morning, three out of four bridge elements were in place and things are running smoother than expected.
Pics or it didn't happen, right? Check out Autobahn GmbH's Platform X for crane-dropping, part-positioning action! The A7 between Warder and Bordesholm junctions is under a full closure, but no worries, the L49, which intersects the highway, is in on the action too. So, folks, plan your journey, the closure is and will continue to be in effect until Monday morning.
Patience is a virtue here. The L49 and A7 closures are crucial for ensuring a smooth construction process. Because here's the deal, the old bridge over the A7 is knocked, and it's due to go kaput in spring 2024. But fear not, once this temporary bridge is up and running, it's gonna be a two-lane, traffic-light-free wonder for commuters. Even cyclists and pedestrians get a slice of the action.
The current construction phase has caused minimal disruptions to traffic. But, just like building a sandcastle after a storm, it's essential to brace yourself for some initial disruptions before the road finally opens back up.
Curious about the nitty-gritty of temporary bridge construction? Here's the lowdown:
- Planning Phase: Plotting, plans, and permission-seeking, oh my!
- Preparation Phase: Getting down to business with site prep, equipment mobilization, and detour signage.
- Construction Phase: Building it up and section by section, let the concrete flow!
- Implementation Phase: Traffic management and all things operational.
- Maintenance Phase: Keeping things shipshape with regular safety inspections.
So, no major traffic kinks yet, but buckle up and remember the golden rule of construction detours: expect the unexpected!
