Heads Up: A3 Exit Siebengebirge Shutdown from 8 PM Tuesday
Road Closure on A3 Siebengebirge From 8 PM Tuesday Night - Traffic Disruption on A3 Highway near Siebengebirge from 8pm Tuesday
Got plans for the road this week in the southern part of North Rhine-Westphalia? Be ready for delays and congestion on the A3! The exit for Siebengebirge going towards Cologne is set to shut down starting at around 8 PM on Tuesday, according to the Federal Highway Authority.
Surprise, surprise! The shutdown announcement came earlier than previously mentioned, which initially showed the closure would begin at midnight. This closure is estimated to last an approx. seven-week stretch, wrapping up around 5 AM on Monday, June 16.
The shutdown is part of an ongoing revamp of the A3 on a 42-kilometer stretchbetween the Cologne-Heumar triangle and Bad Honnef, crossing the state border with Rhineland-Palatinate. The specific 11-kilometer section impacted here is between the Siebengebirge interchange in Königswinter and the Bonn/Siegburg junction. Work includes the repair or rebuilding of nine bridges, alongside the installation of noise-reducing asphalt and noise barriers.
At this point in time, I should mention that my most recent update on the specifics surrounding the A3 Siebengebirge shutdown in North Rhine-Westphalia was in October 2023. I encourage you to consult the official Federal Highway Authority (Bundesstraßenverwaltung) website or local news sources for the latest and most accurate info on any road closures, including those on the A3 autobahn.
