Commuters should be aware of new travel disruptions beginning from this Friday. Here's what you should expect.
Construction and road surface renewal works on the A65 will commence concurrently, between the Landau-Süd and Rohrbach interchanges, due to damage to the existing road surface. The simultaneous execution of both projects aims to minimize traffic disruptions.
Key Points for Motorists:
During the construction period, traffic will be re-routed. Both directions will be redirected onto the Ludwigshafen-bound carriageway through median crossovers. Several restrictions are necessary:
Nighttime A65 Full Closure:
From Saturday, May 24, 8 PM, until Sunday, May 25, 6 AM, there will be a full closure of the A65 between the Landau-Süd and Rohrbach interchanges, towards Karlsruhe. Motorists are advised to follow signposted detours (U7 and U18).
Limited Lanes During Construction:
Only one lane will be available in both directions on the A65 between Landau-Süd and Rohrbach.
B38 Closure Details:
- Landau-Süd on-ramp (towards Ludwigshafen): May 23 and 24, each day from 9 AM to approximately 4 PM
- Off-ramp to B38 (towards Landau): May 26 to 28, each day from 9 AM to approximately 4 PM
These closures will occur during off-peak traffic hours, with detours via the Insheim or Landau-Zentrum interchanges.
Long-term A65 Closures:
Various on- and off-ramps of the Insheim and Landau-Süd interchanges will be closed from Saturday, May 24, and are anticipated to last until the end of July 2025. Detours will lead via the Rohrbach or Landau-Zentrum interchanges.
Sources for Up-to-Date Traffic Information:
For the most accurate and current information on the traffic diversion routes, nighttime closures, and long-term closures, consult local traffic information services, road authority websites, or use GPS navigation apps. These resources provide real-time updates and suggestions for alternative routes.
In the upcoming construction, motorists using the A65 between Landau-Süd and Rohrbach interchanges should be aware that finance may be required for additional fuel due to detours and limited lanes. The public-transit system could be a viable alternative for commuters, reducing the burden on the automotive industry during this period. Furthermore, with the long-term closures of various on- and off-ramps, it is advisable for those in the industry, such as transportation and logistics, to alter their routes or schedules accordingly.
