Home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach: Road closures around Leverkusen

The final phase of construction work on the new Leverkusen Rhine Bridge will again present challenges to motorists. The A1 Autobahn between the Cologne North and Leverkusen junctions is completely closed as is the A59 from the Monheim-Süd junction. This work, which lasts to 4 February, will affect travel to the Bayer 04 Bundesliga home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach (Saturday 27 January, 18.30 CET). The latest updates.

Motorists in and around Leverkusen have faced traffic jams and slow-moving traffic since 19 January. That is due to final work on the new Leverkusen Rhine Bridge. Construction work remains to be completed by the official opening of the bridge on 4 February to link into the existing road network and be ready to take traffic. This requires the full closure of certain sections of roads.

The A1 between the Cologne North and Leverkusen junctions will be closed up to 4 February. In addition, the Monheim-Süd junction on the A59 is also closed. The Köln-Niehl junction has limited access. Pedestrians and cyclists still have unrestricted access over the Rhine bridge.

Key questions and facts on the closures can be found in the attached document (in German).
