Construction sites and traffic regulations
As the city of Kiel announced on its website, the Alte Lübecker Chaussee is currently being extensively renovated by Deutsche Bahn. Only one lane of traffic and reciprocal control via a traffic light system are available. Trucks have to pay attention to the clearance height of 3.60 meters. Digital height controls and light barriers are installed to stop vehicles above this height in a timely manner and to enable turning maneuvers.
Not only do these measures cause delays in traffic flow, but they can also create additional congestion if other vehicles block the path. kiel.de emphasizes that the police and the traffic authorities are automatically informed about the activation of the height control.
