Traffic - A2: Truck with chicken manure crashes down an embankment

A truck loaded with 23 tons of chicken manure caused a closure in the direction of Hanover on the Autobahn 2 in East Westphalia on Monday night. According to the police, the van from the western Münsterland region broke through the central crash barrier, presumably due to a burst tire, and plunged several meters into the ground. The 36-year-old driver sustained minor injuries and was taken to hospital. The load was spread across a meadow below the scene of the accident.

During the recovery operation, the A2 (Oberhausen-Hanover) had to be completely closed in the morning in the direction of Hanover. The police estimate the material damage at over 200,000 euros.
