- Anticipates significant congestion towards the closure of summer vacation, according to ADAC.
As summer holidays conclude in Berlin and Brandenburg, prepare for hefty traffic and congestion on the capital region's roads. Particular trouble spots include chokepoints in and around Berlin, plus construction sections, which significantly boost the chance of traffic jams, warns a spokesperson from ADAC.
Specifically impacted are the roads near construction sites on the A10 at the Berliner Ring, between Dreieck Potsdam and Dreieck Spandau, the A11 at Kreuz Uckermark heading towards the Berliner Ring, and the A9 between Berlin and Halle-Leipzig, as well as Hamburg.
Claudia Löffler, an ADAC Berlin-Brandenburg spokesperson, reminds drivers to establish an emergency lane even during intense traffic and drive with added caution. She recommends commuting as early or as late as feasible.
During the weekend, potential hold-ups on the roads might bring a cloud, but a silver lining exists for those re-entering Berlin's commuter traffic next week. The construction site on the A100 between Spandauer Damm and the AD Funkturm is predicted to conclude by August 30, as per the Federal Highway Authority.
After the summer holidays, commuters may face traffic congestion on roads around Berlin and Brandenburg. Drivers are advised to use the emergency lane during heavy traffic and consider commuting during off-peak hours.
