Holiday start in Saxony: A4 threatens traffic jams between Chemnitz and Dresden!
It's almost time: Friday, June 27th, is the last day of school in Saxony and thus the start of the long summer holidays in Saxony, Saxony-Anhalt and Thuringia. Many families are getting ready to start their holiday fun. But a clear warning comes from the ADAC: the traffic density will increase significantly on the first holiday weekend, especially on the A4 motorway, which is considered the busiest route in Saxony.
In order to optimally plan your upcoming trips, it's worth taking a look at the traffic situation. According to the forecasts of diesachsen.de There will be high traffic volumes, especially between Chemnitz and Dresden. Construction sites also cause traffic jams here.
Traffic chaos on the highways
More than 150 kilometers of Saxon motorway are already classified as prone to traffic jams. In addition to the A4, the northern routes A13 and A9 and the southern routes A17 and A72 are also expected to be heavily frequented. Autobahn GmbH warns of bottlenecks, especially at critical points such as the Schkeuditz intersection, Hermsdorfer intersection and the Hochfranken triangle t-online.de reported.
The situation is made even worse by ongoing construction sites on the A4. In particular, the sections between Dresden's old town and the Dresdner Tor service area to the Nossen triangle are affected by delays. The diversion routes via Wilsdruff must also be taken into account.
Travel tips
As you start the weekend, you should be prepared for increased travel traffic. The ADAC recommends setting off as early in the day as possible or avoiding peak times. There is a particularly hot tip for drivers on the A17 towards Prague: the border crossing could also be narrow here.
Current construction sites and traffic information are also available on the ADAC website, which also offers international traffic information, among other things. The ADAC traffic information system shows all relevant information about traffic jams, return traffic and construction sites. This way you always stay up to date.
In conclusion, it remains to be said that the beginning of the summer holidays in Saxony is a time when good time management and up-to-date information are essential for a relaxed trip. Enjoy your time and reach your destination safely and stress-free!
