Traffic chaos is approaching: A46 construction sites are causing traffic jams in Meschede!
Anyone traveling from Cologne this weekend should be prepared for increased traffic and possible traffic jams. On July 19, 2025, due to construction work on the A46 near Meschede, there will be traffic restrictions that will take effect between 6:00 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. These construction sites affect both the Arnsberg-Neheim and Brilon directions and are set up between the Enste and Wennemen junctions as well as Uentrop and Freienohl. The left lane is closed in both directions, narrowing the roadway to a single lane and increasing traffic chaos, reports [news.de].
Such a restriction can lead to significant delays. According to information from the Central Office for Traffic Management of the North Rhine-Westphalia Road Construction Authority, which serves as the basis for the forecasts, increased traffic volumes can already be expected. Therefore, the transport authorities advise planning enough time and considering alternative routes.
Current traffic situation on the A46
The A46 is a busy motorway that has also recently been affected by traffic jams in other areas. On July 17, 2025, the stau.info platform reported on several kilometer-long traffic jams on the Wuppertal → Düsseldorf route. There was a series of traffic disruptions, particularly between different connection points such as Wuppertal-Elberfeld and Wuppertal-Katernberg. Those responsible for monitoring the current traffic situation recommend regularly consulting the interactive dashboards on the current traffic situation in order to avoid routes affected by construction sites and accidents.
The motorway traffic centers in Germany offer continuous monitoring of the traffic situation, which enables a quick response to unforeseeable disruptions. For example, pre-determined action concepts such as corridor strategies can be implemented immediately to relieve traffic as much as possible.
So anyone planning to travel on the A46 this weekend should be well prepared. Scheduling a few extra minutes of time can be worth its weight in gold. Be prepared to be patient and stay updated on current traffic conditions.
