A52 and A40: Stau-chaos ends, whisper asphalt ensures calm!

Essen, Deutschland - The A40 and A52 finally go back to operation! After the streets have been blocked since last week due to the laying of whisper asphalt, drivers can now roll from the A52 to the A40 - and that before midnight, as a spokesman for Autobahn GmbH announced. The closures had led to enormous traffic jams during peak times, even during the holiday season. In particular, commuters in the direction of Dortmund were additionally charged, since the A40 from the Bochum-West cross will also be completely blocked in the coming weeks.

The last section of the construction work took more than a week and should ensure less noise in the Essen city area. While the work, important access roads, especially from the A52, were tight, which further tightened the traffic situation. Now it is time for drivers: step on the gas and finally drive undisturbed again! Further details on the situation can be found on www1.wdr.de
