Heidenheim an der Brenz, Deutschland - Anyone who is traveling on the A7 motorway on 10.07.2025 today should prepare for traffic restrictions. The reason for this is a construction site that was set up between Heidenheimer Kohlplatten and Heidenheim (116). The corresponding route measures 491 meters and is closed from 07:56 to 3:00 p.m. . This is expected to lead to increased traffic loads and temporary congestion in this area, such as the News.de reported.

not only in Heidenheim, the traffic situation is also tense in other places on the A7. Current reports show traffic jams in several directions: On the route from Kassel to Hanover, there is a traffic jam between Hildesheimer Börde and Hildesheim-Drispenstedt with a delay of 16 minutes . The average speed is only 23 km/h and already started at 8:47 a.m. . There are also delays from up to 15 minutes between Dinkelsbühl/Fichtenau and Ellwanger Berge, here the average speed is even smaller, with 21 km/h from reported.

traffic forecasts and structural changes

The A7 extends over 962 kilometers and is the longest motorway in Germany. It runs from Handewitt in the north to Füssen in the south and leads through numerous federal states. The state of expansion is not uniform: depending on the section, the number of lanes varies between 2 and 4 per direction. A high traffic load can be expected in particular due to holiday periods, which often leads to traffic jams through construction sites and the high traffic volume.

In this context, the planned extensions on 6 or 8 lanes should also be mentioned at different sections. The Hamburg Elbe tunnel and the Hanover area are among the clamps on this important traffic artery. Despite the inconveniences, this work is being used for a sustainable improvement in the traffic situation.

tips for drivers

For everyone who is on the A7 today, it is advisable to consider alternative routes or to plan enough time. The extended travel times should not come as a surprise, so it is advisable to keep an eye on the current traffic situation and, if necessary, to avoid the traffic jam through local side routes.

In conclusion, it is only to be hoped that the construction sites will be completed soon and that the road will be accessible again without restrictions. For today it says: patience is required!
