A70 to Shut Two Nights Near Bamberg Next Week for ICE Bridge Works

The overnight closures enable the installation of precast girders over a railway bridge as part of a €70 million upgrade tied to the ICE expansion.

Overview

  • Autobahn-GmbH scheduled full closures in the Schweinfurt direction between Bamberg and Hallstadt on two nights starting the week of December 15.
  • The first closure runs Monday, December 15, from about 20:00 to 06:00 Tuesday, with a second from Tuesday evening until Wednesday morning.
  • Only the carriageway toward Schweinfurt is affected and the Bayreuth-bound lanes remain open.
  • A signed detour will guide traffic heading toward Schweinfurt during the shutdowns.
  • The work is linked to the ICE line expansion near Bamberg and forms part of a broader program that includes noise protection for Hallstadt and adjustments to the A70 alignment.
