This weekend, the A57 motorway, traveling towards Cologne, is shut down between the Krefeld-Zentrum interchange and the Meerbusch interchange. This is due to the ongoing six-lane expansion happening between Meerbusch and Krefeld-Oppum, as stated by the Autobahn GmbH. Additionally, the Krefeld-Oppum interchange is also closed in the Cologne direction because of some marking work. It is expected to reopen by Sunday night at 6 pm.
