Traffic chaos on the A485: Massive traffic jams due to bridge work!
In Hesse, on the A485 near Hüttenberg, road users will face major challenges in the coming months. As reported by news.de. Comprehensive traffic restrictions announced June 23 to September 30, 2025. The reason for this: bridge repairs, which can lead to increased traffic volumes and the risk of traffic jams. The restrictions begin at 9 p.m. and end at 5 a.m. each morning. The residents of the zip code 35625 in Hörnsheim will be particularly affected by these measures.
It is important to note that this closure is not the only challenge that users of the A485 will face. The current traffic reports from staumelder-karte.de also show that construction work is underway between Gießen-Schiffenberger Tal and Bergwerkswald, which could lead to short-term delays. There are currently no known further disruptions or issues in the traffic network on the A485 - a ray of hope in the current traffic situation for many commuters.
Traffic situation and diversions
Anyone traveling on the A485 should also keep an eye on the condition of the road. The road stretches for a total length of 19 km between Gießener Nordkreuz and Langgöns. There are 2 × 2 lanes here, which basically ensures smooth traffic. However, there may be massive restrictions, especially during the said lockdown period, which could affect the entire region.
According to hessenschau.de, bus lines 22, 41, 61 and 65 are also affected in the region. Some stops, including the Groß-Gerau train station and the AOK/Post, will no longer be served due to the restrictions. As an alternative, passengers can use alternative stops, such as Dornberg train station or the district clinic. Whether by car or bus, additional walking distances to the city center are unavoidable for many passengers.
The current developments pose a challenge not only for commuters, but also for residents. It is already clear that the traffic situation will remain tense throughout the closure. However, if you plan well, you can try to avoid traffic jams and use the newly installed stops.
