A46 Closure and Single-Lane Restriction Announced for Weekend Construction Work
Drivers planning to travel on the A46 between Wuppertal-Cronenberg (exit to L418) and Wuppertal-Sonnborn should be aware of a full closure and a single-lane restriction due to repairs and construction work, which will take place from Friday, 25th July at 9 PM to Monday, 28th July at 5 AM.
The main carriageway of the A46 will be closed for the entire stretch, with traffic being rerouted via the crossover ramp to the L74. The single-lane restriction on the A46 in the direction of Dortmund is due to repairs on the right lane of the road.
The full closure and the single-lane restriction are part of a previously announced plan for weekend construction work. The work is focused on the damage to the right lane of the A46 and will take place over the weekend.
Traffic management will remain in place until the full closure planned for the weekend. Drivers are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and to check local traffic authority websites or official regional transport updates for the most up-to-date information on road closures and traffic conditions.
It is important to note that the full closure will be in both directions, and the closure was previously announced. The closure and single-lane restriction are necessary to ensure the safety of drivers and workers, and to complete the repairs and construction work as efficiently as possible.
We recommend that drivers plan their journeys in advance and allow extra time for their travel, as delays are expected due to the closure and single-lane restriction. Stay safe on the roads and follow all traffic signs and instructions from the traffic management team.
- Due to the weekend construction work on the A46, the public-transit system might experience delays or reroutes in the Wuppertal area, given the closure and single-lane restriction on the main automotive route.
- The closure of the A46 will not only impact automotive travel but also other sectors such as finance, as logistics and supply chains might be disrupted.
- The industry sector may also be affected by the A46 closure and single-lane restriction, given the lack of smooth transportation of goods during the weekend construction work.
