Overview

• Saturday’s holiday-end surge created near-standstill conditions on the A1 and A7 through Landkreis Harburg and Uelzen, worsened by minor collisions and a vehicle fire at the Bokel exit.
• On Sunday morning the Autobahnpolizei confirmed the main carriageways are flowing freely and no major police operations have been required.
• An eight-kilometre northbound backup formed at the Rader Hochbrücke near Rendsburger Kreuz around midday.
• Southbound queues of about five kilometres have developed at Dreieck Moorfleet approaching the Elbbrücken and inside the Elbtunnel.
• Ongoing bridge maintenance on the A1 in Hamburg and deck construction on the A7 near Stellingen continue to trigger brief delays.
