Winter chaos in Hameln: truck accidents and smooth roads provide traffic jams!

In the Hameln-Pyrmont region, the winter weather conditions have led to considerable traffic problems. Strong snowfall and ice cream provided numerous accidents and stuck vehicles. Local transport in Hameln is now slowly being resumed, like Dewezet reported. The streets in the urban area are currently under the control of the traffic supervision, and some bus lines have resumed their business, including lines 1, 3 and 6.

The rescue services are permanent use due to the winter conditions. Temperatures below freezing have made the state road 434, which has turned into an icy piste, problematic. This state leads to an increase in the number of trucks that slide off the street. For example, on the A2 in the direction of Dortmund, a truck was involved in a traffic accident in which the right lane was blocked, but both drivers were not injured. In addition to a serious traffic accident, further traffic disruptions on the A2 were reported in the opposite direction. Settlement services are working on restoring the flow regulations as quickly as possible.

Current traffic disruptions and cleanup work

A total of at least 16 accidents due to smoothness were registered with two injuries in the Hameln-Pyrmont district within two hours. On federal road 238 near Rinteln, traffic came partly to a standstill, and in Bad Eilsen the police had to intervene at several intersections. The traffic on the B83 between Westendorf and Steinbergen is also affected by at least 30 stuck trucks.

In the past few days there have been several reports on cleared accident sites in the area. On the B83 between Bückeburg and Hameln, the message about a disability was canceled, and the street is free again, as stumMELDER.com reported. The rescue work and street clearance are crucial for the restoration of the traffic flow in the region.
