Traffic jam nightmare in the Rhine district of Neuss: there is a risk of traffic chaos at the weekend!
ADAC warns of traffic jams in the Rhine district of Neuss on 15-17. August 2025: high traffic volume due to the end of the holidays and construction sites.

Traffic jam nightmare in the Rhine district of Neuss: there is a risk of traffic chaos at the weekend!
On the third weekend in August, specifically on August 15th to 17th, 2025, the ADAC expects real traffic chaos in the Rhein-Kreis Neuss. Drivers on the A1, A3 and A61 motorways in particular have to expect long delays and slow-moving traffic. The reason for this is several factors: On the one hand, the holiday season ends in the federal states of Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate and Saarland, and on the other hand, Friday, August 15th, is also a public holiday in Bavaria. This creates a decent amount of traffic, which could peak as early as Friday afternoon, followed by heavy traffic on Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon.
The ADAC points out that around 1,250 additional construction sites on the motorways could cause even more delays. Especially when lanes are closed or long roadworks are waiting for road users. The summer travel ban for trucks over 7.5 tons, which applies on Saturdays from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m., brings some relief, but travelers should still be patient and keep an eye on traffic reports regularly so that they don't get stuck in traffic jams.
Traffic jam forecast for the weekend
The forecast traffic jams could not only affect drivers in the Rhine district of Neuss. Significantly increased traffic volumes are also expected on the neighboring motorways. If you are traveling this weekend, you would do well to plan well in advance and possibly consider alternative routes. This way you can avoid traffic and save a lot of time.
But it's not just the streets that are a hot topic at the moment. There is also news in the automotive industry that is important for those interested.
