Traffic chaos in NRW: A61 and A44 closed from tonight!
A look at the traffic conditions in North Rhine-Westphalia shows that from today, August 24, 2025, severe restrictions must be expected on the A61 motorway in the Bedburg area. The closure of the section between the Bedburger Land Ost service area and the Jackerath exit will last until tomorrow, August 25, 2025, at 5:00 a.m.
Like [news.de](https://www.news.de/auto/858877354/verkehrsmelde-nw-bedburg-titz-rhein-erft-kreis-dueren-zur-verkehrsstoerun g-due-to-closure-from-08-24-2025-to-08-25-2025-restrictions-in-traffic-north-rhine-westphalia-danger-of-traffic-traffic-on-a61-a44/1/) reported, the marking work is the reason for the traffic disruptions. Drivers should therefore prepare for increased traffic volumes and possible traffic jams, especially during the evening hours.
Additional closures and diversions
But that's not all. There will also be restrictions on the A44 between theJackerath junction and theJackerath exit during the same period. This means that drivers in the region face a double challenge.
Repair work has also been underway on the L279/A61 roundabout near Bedburg-Millendorf for some time. According to strassen.nrw.de, this work has been in progress since April 2nd and the partial closure of the L279 exit in the direction of Bedburg is still necessary. The weather conditions have caused the completion of the concrete and asphalt works to be delayed, which does not make the situation any easier for commuters.
Traffic will be rerouted via Bedburg-Pütz and Bedburg-Kaster, namely via Lipper Straße and St.-Rochus-Straße. Good to know that traffic in the direction of Millendorf and the A61 is not affected by this construction site.
Facts about traffic and infrastructure
Overall, road traffic has a major impact on citizens' everyday lives, and given the upcoming closures and diversions, drivers can only hope that the work will be completed quickly and without further delays so that smooth traffic flow can soon be guaranteed again.
