Traffic chaos in Witten: Hellweg completely closed until November!
Traffic disruptions in the Ennepe-Ruhr district: Road closure on Hellweg in Witten from August 12th to November 23rd, 2025.
Traffic chaos in Witten: Hellweg completely closed until November!
Current traffic jams and traffic restrictions are a big issue for many of us. According to [news.de], drivers in Witten in particular have had to prepare for ongoing disruptions since today, August 12, 2025. The reason for this is the road closure on Hellweg in Heven, which will last until November 23, 2025. From 7 a.m. onwards, you should exercise particular caution as the closure will lead to noticeable restrictions both in the city center and towards the main road.
The city of Witten initiated this measure to enable the construction of a temporary roundabout. There will also be a complete closure of the Steinhügel and Wannen junction areas, which will significantly increase the volume of traffic. Have patience, dear drivers! If you have the opportunity, you should consider alternative routes to avoid traffic jams.
Traffic volume and risk of traffic jams
As is often the case in such cases, there will be bottlenecks not only at the construction site on Hellweg in the Witten area. Various construction sites are currently being reported in various regions of Germany. [verkehrslage.de] reports on a construction site between Nenndorf and Dibbersen, which has already been removed. In addition, with its [ADAC Maps], the ADAC has real-time information about traffic flow both on federal highways and in cities. The system helps you stay informed in good time about traffic jam reports and dangerous situations.
The weather conditions are always particularly treacherous, as black ice or storm warnings can make traffic even more difficult. Drivers should always keep this in mind when planning their route. There are currently reports of unexpected dangers on the motorway, such as truck breakdowns and dust on the A2 near Wunstorf, which could also lead to impaired visibility.
Hotline and contact
The city of Witten has set up a construction site hotline that can be reached at 02302-581-4444. Here, citizens and commuters can obtain further information about the construction site and keep up to date with developments.
The closure on Hellweg in Witten is a clear indication that it is time to adapt to traffic changes and perhaps also become a little more flexible with your own route planning. Because as the saying goes? Not only do you have a good hand, but you should also act wisely in traffic in order to get to your destination with less stress.
