Hamburg’s A1 Northbound Set to Close 12–3 p.m. for Heavy-Transport Recovery

Two heavy cranes will remove cargo from an immobilized oversized vehicle with a non-driveable trailer.

Overview

  • The full closure applies between the Moorfleet and Billstedt interchanges, according to Autobahn GmbH Nord.
  • Traffic will be diverted on the signed U87 route via Ring 2, Horner Rampe and the B5 through the city.
  • Access from the A25 coming from Geesthacht toward Lübeck/Berlin will be blocked during the operation.
  • The heavy transport broke down early in the morning near Moorfleet due to a technical defect, police said.
  • Separately, a southbound truck breakdown earlier blocked two lanes and reportedly caused about six kilometers of congestion near the Norderelbbrücke.
