Traffic chaos in the Rhein-Erft district: Accidents provide long traffic jams!

On Tuesday morning there are considerable traffic disruptions in the Rhein-Erft district. Various accidents on important roads and highways have provided long traffic jams and blocked lanes. The areas around Bedburg-Millendorf, Gymnich and the Kreuz Kerpen are particularly affected. The situation is tense because many drivers are affected by the closures and have to look for alternative routes.

According to the police, there was a serious accident on the L279 near Bedburg-Millendorf in the early morning. Here, a driver was caught in her vehicle, but was able to communicate with the emergency services despite her injuries. Due to the accident, the roadway in this area is blocked, which means considerable restrictions for drivers who want to go to the A61 towards Koblenz.

causes of the accident and traffic measures

There was also an incident in the Gymnich area on Tuesday morning, in which a car collided with a motorcycle. Details on the injuries of the parties involved are not yet known, but the police expect traffic disruptions here too. These accidents contribute significantly to the traffic chaos in the region.

On the highways, the encounters in Bergheim-Süd and at the Kerpen Kreuz are particularly responsible. At around 7 a.m., a serious rear -end collision occurred on the A61 to Koblenz in which four vehicles were involved. First, traffic had to be led over the hard shoulder, but according to the police, the road has now been cleared so that traffic can flow again.

Less luck was the traffic on the A4 towards Olpe at the Kreuz Kerpen. After an accident, only one trace is accessible here, while the police are waiting for the tower to clarify the situation. The disabilities continue to continue and drivers are asked to adjust to longer travel times and to consider possible detours.

The incidents once again illustrate how quickly the traffic situation in urban areas can change and what challenges arise in the event of accidents. It remains to be seen how the situation in the Rhein-Erft district is developing and whether further measures will be required to relieve traffic loads.
