Overview
- Authorities closed the A2 toward Berlin between the Irxleben junction and the Magdeburg interchange after a Sunday morning crash.
- Around 9:15 a.m., a 47-year-old driver lost control, struck the right guardrail, slid across all lanes, hit the median barrier, and came to rest crosswise.
- All lanes toward Berlin are blocked and traffic is being routed over an adjacent parking area at the scene.
- No injuries were reported, though the truck and both guardrails sustained significant damage, according to the Autobahn police.
- Recovery and clearing operations are ongoing with no reopening time announced, as wintry conditions continue to trigger accidents and travel disruptions in Saxony-Anhalt.
