Traffic work in Buchen (Odenwald) from October 2025: full closures on B27 announced, including diversions and demolition.
Traffic chaos in Buchen: B27 closed for extensive work from October!
In the city of Buchen in the Odenwald, the traffic situation will change a lot in the coming year. From October 6, 2025, the B27 between Buchen-Mitte and Buchen-Nord will be completely closed for almost two weeks. Although some drivers may be a little nervous, this measure is necessary due to extensive roadworks. Loud [news.de](https://www.news.de/amp/auto/858787282/verkehrsmelde-zur-vollsperrung-buchen-stadt-buchen-odenwald-karlsruh e-baden-wuerttemberg-disruption-due-to-renewal-on-the-ceiling-from-06-10-2025-to-28-11-2025-on-b27-amorbacher-strasse/1/) This work is planned for the first time from October 6th, 4:00 a.m. to October 19th, 9:59 p.m.
The diversion for cars and trucks leads along a number of streets, including Hettinger Straße and Walldürner Straße, and is a little longer at around 600 meters, but is essential for the duration of the work. From October 20th, the B27 will be partially closed, which will last until November 28th, 2025 and, among other things, will include a diversion via the L518. Here too, an extension of the travel time must be expected.
Construction sites around the bridge
But there will not only be construction sites on the B27. Another major project that will affect the traffic situation in the region is the planned demolition of a bridge on July 30, 2025 at 11 a.m., which is already being prepared this summer. Information about this can be found on the Odenwaldkreis website odenwaldkreis.de. After the demolition, the demolition material will be transported away on the B45 in an estimated 1,500 trucks. The company “Reisch Sprengtechnik” from Bavaria was awarded the contract for this demolition and began setting up the construction site in the last week of June.
To ensure traffic during the demolition work, fleece sheets, wooden planks and sand coverings will be used to protect the railway tracks and the Mümling embankment. In addition, work is underway to build a temporary bridge to enable the material to be removed smoothly.
Traffic priorities and forecasts
For everyone traveling in the region, it is good to know that ADAC Maps provides real-time information about traffic flow and construction-related disruptions. This allows you to plan the best route and provides forecasts for future departure times, which are particularly important on such days. The service provides comprehensive information about construction sites and possible dangerous situations so that drivers can prepare as best as possible.
In summary: The traffic disruptions in Buchen cannot be avoided, but with the right information from the region you can plan well and travel safely. Be it during the full closure or after the bridge has been blown up – patient passengers will soon reap the benefits of these necessary measures!
