Overview

• The traffic information center told Tagesspiegel the northbound direction is expected to remain shut until the weekend due to repair work on damaged tunnel technology.
• Southbound traffic toward Kreuzberg, which reopened on Tuesday, was closed for several hours on Wednesday morning for safety measures.
• Police reported the 57-year-old truck driver had about 2.4‰ alcohol in a breath test and became wedged after attempting to enter a two‑meter‑clearance ramp to the Hauptbahnhof parking garage.
• Firefighters freed the driver with special tools; he sustained back injuries, was taken to a hospital and later discharged, and a towing company removed the vehicle.
• Authorities have not provided a precise reopening time beyond the weekend target for the Moabit-bound bore as assessments and repairs continue.
