Elbtunnel and A3 Kaiserberg Closures Lead Germany’s Weekend Autobahn Shutdowns

Authorities urge use of signed detours or public transport during concentrated night and weekend works.

Overview

  • Hamburg’s A7, including the Elbtunnel, will be fully closed between Stellingen and Heimfeld from Friday at 22:00 to Monday at 05:00 for sign‑gantry installation and tests of the new tunnel control center, with long detours via A1, A21 and B205.
  • Police in Hamburg warn of severe congestion as the closure coincides with multiple demonstrations and an HSV home match, advising drivers to avoid the area or switch to rail.
  • The A3 between Kreuz Oberhausen‑West and Kreuz Breitscheid shuts in both directions from Friday at 21:00 through 17 November for works at Kreuz Kaiserberg, with signed diversions via A524, A59 and A42 and an overlapping A40 eastbound closure from Saturday morning to Monday.
  • Near Frankfurt, the A661 toward Oberursel‑Nord is closed from Friday at 22:00 to Monday at roughly 04:00 for resurfacing between Bad Homburg and the Oberursel junction, with U‑routes guiding traffic from the A5 and inner A661.
  • On Munich’s ring, the A99 between Dreieck München‑Allach and Tunnel Aubing toward Lindau is closed Friday 20:00 to Sunday 20:00 with staged ramp closures and a detour via the A8, while separate LKW block‑dispatch at Kufstein is producing queues on the A93 on scheduled November dates.
