Police are warning of traffic jams on Christmas journeys home, especially towards Poland. This year, the problem will be exacerbated by the construction site at the Köngshainer Berge tunnel on the A4, the police said. Although it was planned differently, one of the two tubes will remain closed over the turn of the year. The modernization work on the tunnel had been delayed.
The police are therefore keeping a close eye on the A4, especially between 19 and 23 December and 2 and 5 January. If necessary, the technical relief organization is ready to provide support.
Those who do not necessarily have to drive towards Poland during the Christmas travel period should not do so either. Anyone driving should pay attention to the traffic warnings and consider taking a longer detour to avoid ending up in a traffic jam. According to the police, Easter travel could also be affected by the tunnel problem next year.
