A3 Motorway Construction: Full Shutdown in Lower Franconia near Würzburg and Fürth

Road Closure on A3 Highway in Würzburg for Construction - Road closure of A3 highway close to Würzburg for construction purposes

Wanna know what's happening on the A3 motorway? Here's a heads-up! The stretch between Geiselwind (Kitzingen district) and Schlüsselfeld (Bamberg district) is gettin' a makeover. The project company A3 North Bavaria GmbH & Co. KG has announced a night-time shutdown on the A3.

Starting on Saturday (around 20:00) until Sunday (around 06:00), traffic will be diverted as they work on expandin' this six-lane highway. This project is part of a larger expansion endeavor spanning approximately 76 kilometers between motorway junctions Biebelried and Fürth/Erlangen, aimin' to be completed by the end of this year.

A whopping 80,000 vehicles dash through Lower Franconia daily, with up to 100,000 on peak days around Würzburg, Aschaffenburg, and Nuremberg. This busy highway, a constant construction site for years, will see the erection of around 132,000 square meters of noise protection walls and barriers, that's roughly the size of over 18 football fields!
