The recent closure of the Ringbahnbrücke on the A100 in Berlin has caused significant disruptions in the capital's traffic flow. However, a temporary solution has been implemented, allowing vehicles to divert through one lane heading north towards Wedding.
Officials from the Autobahn GmbH Nordost announced that the alternative route was set up early on Monday morning, with operations commencing at 7:04 AM. Ralph Brodel, a representative from the agency, indicated that traffic is now moving considerably better compared to the prior week.
The urgent rerouting was necessitated by the sudden closure of the Ringbahnbrücke on Wednesday evening due to the discovery of a severe crack in its structural framework. This three-lane bridge, which spans the S-Bahn tracks, had been an essential part of the roadway leading north. Since the closure, motorists have faced considerable delays around the autobahn interchange.
Ute Bonde, the city's traffic senator, stated on Radioeins that the newly established northbound lane will remain in place for several months until a replacement bridge is constructed. Further details regarding the traffic management plan associated with the bridge's closure will be discussed in a forthcoming announcement from the Autobahn GmbH.
According to a spokesperson from the traffic information center, following the implementation of the new route, delays in the area varied between 10 to 20 minutes. Notably, there was a decrease in rush hour traffic compared to a typical Monday morning, suggesting that many commuters opted for alternative transportation methods. It is anticipated that traffic levels will stabilize in the coming days, though drivers can expect delays of 20 to 30 minutes during peak hours heading north.
Brodel emphasized the importance of keeping the traffic on the autobahn, urging drivers to be considerate of residents in nearby neighborhoods and avoid using side streets as shortcuts.
