Autobahn chaos: A40 and A52 in the Ruhr area Dense from October!
From October 17th, the A40 and A52 in the Ruhr area will be closed for a week in the direction of Dortmund. The full closures affect the section between Essen and Gelsenkirchen and are necessary to install "whisper asphalt" on an area of 95,000 square meters. The A40 is blocked between the Essen-Zentrum and Gelsenkirchen-Süd, while the A52 between Essen-Berghausen and the Essen-Ost motorway triangle is affected. Drivers should be prepared for large detours between October 17th and October 24th, as some junctions such as Essen-Zentrum-West and-OST are completely blocked.
DERY lines have already been set up: For vehicles under 3.5 tons, the detour is redirected via the A42 in the direction of Dortmund, while heavier trucks have to use an alternative route via the A2 and A45. Autobahn GmbH points out that the closures are dependent on the weather and may be moved to spring 2025. Further information about the exact diversions and new blocks can be found in a current report on www.24rhein.de .
