Roadblock and full shutdown of A59 highway, from Monheim to Richrath towards Düsseldorf, effective only until 5th of July
The Autobahn GmbH Rhineland has announced that it will be carrying out essential repairs on the A59 between Monheim and Richrath junctions. These repairs are necessary due to the poor condition of the road.
From June 29th, the A59 in the direction of Düsseldorf will be fully closed between Monheim and Richrath for approximately eight days. This closure is part of an immediate measure that cannot be delayed due to traffic safety priority. The scheduled completion date for this closure is around Saturday evening, 5th of July.
During the full closure, a detour via the A542, A3, and A46 will be signposted with a red dot. After the full closure, only one of two lanes will be open between Richrath junction and the Wolfshagen rest area.
The coordination of this measure involves local municipalities, traffic authorities, and traffic centres. The goal is to minimize inconvenience for road users. If you need more specific details about signage or alternate routes, local traffic authorities or official construction updates would have the most precise and current information.
Traffic coming from Monheim is being redirected via the Langenfelder Straße (L142) and the federal road B8 toward Richrath. Drivers are guided to use local roads parallel to the A59 to circumvent the construction zone. These detours are in place to maintain traffic flow while the repairs are ongoing.
It's worth noting that a local bypass via Knipprather, Düsseldorf, and Berghausener streets is available between Monheim and Richrath junctions as an alternative route during the closure.
The comprehensive refurbishment of the A59 between Düsseldorf-South and Monheim-South is scheduled for autumn 2025. This refurbishment is aimed at ensuring ongoing traffic safety. The scheduled completion date for this refurbishment is planned for the end of November 2025.
We advise all road users to plan their journeys accordingly and to check the latest updates from local traffic authorities to avoid any potential delays.
The closure of the A59 for approximately eight days, starting from June 29th, is not only for the Autobahn GmbH Rhineland's essential repairs but also a part of a traffic safety priority measure in the industry sector. Coping with this, a detour via A542, A3, and A46 will be signposted for transportation routes.
For those seeking precise details about alternative routes or signage, local traffic authorities or official construction updates would provide the most current and accurate information. In addition, a local bypass via Knipprather, Düsseldorf, and Berghausener streets is available as an alternative route during the closure, relevant for both finance sectors, such as businesses, and general-news updates for the public.
