Obstruction of the Pforzheim-West Motorway's Exit Access Route
A8 Motorway Repair Work on Pforzheim-West Interchange from June 14, 2023, to May 15, 2025
The Southwest Autobahn GmbH will carry out crucial repair works on the A8 motorway at the Pforzheim-West interchange, lasting from 8 PM on June 14th, 2023, until 6 AM on May 15th, 2025. The much-needed maintenance will take place in the direction of Stuttgart.
During the repair works, several sections of the interchange will be shut down, including the first and second lanes and the exit ramp towards Pforzheim. However, the on-ramp from Stuttgart will remain accessible.
For drivers heading towards Pforzheim, alternative routes will be in place. Traffic coming from the western direction (Karlsruhe) is recommended to exit at Karlsbad or Wimsheim and follow the B10 federal highway, while those from the eastern direction (Stuttgart) may choose to exit at Pforzheim-Ost or Leonberg and adopt the same strategy, subject to changes in the official detour plan due to specific closure phases.
German Autobahn authorities always signpost official detours during closures, and most GPS and navigation apps will automatically suggest detours based on the latest traffic and closure information. To stay informed, travelers can also check the ADAC Verkehrs-App, Google Maps Traffic, local radio traffic reports, or official Baden-Württemberg traffic information websites for updates.
The ensuing section presents suggested detour routes and additional resources to help travelers navigate during the repair work on the A8 motorway.
The repair work on the A8 motorway in the automotive industry of Pforzheim-West interchange could impact the transportation of goods and services.
