Overview

• The A59 closes on October 15 at 21:00 between Dreieck Düsseldorf‑Süd and Richrath, extending to Monheim on October 20 for the first construction phase.
• The initial phase is slated for about eight months, after which traffic will run single‑lane before work switches to the opposite direction toward Düsseldorf.
• Works include full carriageway renewal along with repairs to bridges and drainage, plus modernization of road equipment across the 12‑kilometre segment.
• Official long‑distance detours route drivers via A46–A3–A542 with an optimized flow at Autobahndreieck Langenfeld, and a second option via A46–A57–A1–A59.
• Local diversions are signposted, with demand‑operated signals to regulate flow, and increased load is expected on alternative corridors such as the A3 and B8.
