Remscheid, a city in the Bergisches Land with around 112,000 inhabitants, has developed in recent years not only into a popular place to live, but also into a central point in the transport network. The city is well connected by the A1 and A46 motorways and the A535, but this also results in medium traffic volumes.

Traffic jam hotspots and construction sites
On the A1 between Cologne and Dortmund, the current traffic situation warns of a real traffic jam. Almost 6,500 hours of traffic jams have been recorded in the recent past. This route is known to be under heavy pressure and is expected to continue to be under increasing pressure in the coming days. The A46, which connects Düsseldorf with Wuppertal, is also not without its problems - it is one of the busiest routes in North Rhine-Westphalia and regularly experiences traffic jams, as the ADAC reports in its traffic jam report.
Important roads such as the B51/B51n and B229, which connect both Remscheid and the neighboring Sauerland, are also in focus. The B237 leads Wipperfürth via Hückeswagen to Remscheid and has proven to be a critical connection. Construction sites are the main cause of frequent traffic disruptions, making planning difficult for commuters and travelers.
A challenge for road users
Traffic reports are important for all road users, especially at peak times. Accidents such as the current Burgholz tunnel on the L418, which has been closed in the Düsseldorf direction since December 23rd, add to the additional complexity. Drivers should therefore use the various navigation apps to monitor the traffic situation in real time and, if necessary, choose alternative routes.
According to the ADAC traffic jam balance, road users in North Rhine-Westphalia spent almost 155,000 hours in traffic jams in 2024 - a number that is linked to hundreds of construction sites. Traffic jams are usually observed mainly from Tuesday to Thursday. This pattern is expected to continue in the coming year as construction projects are expected to increase.
It remains to be hoped that the traffic situation in Remscheid will be a little more relaxed in the coming days. But given the forecast construction sites and the existing risk of traffic jams, the likelihood of a smooth journey is rather low. For everyone traveling in and around Remscheid, all that remains is to follow the current information and prepare for a potentially frustrating journey.
