Month-long closure of the A8 Neunkirchen-Oberstadt exit begins!

From June 2, 2025, the Neunkirchen-Oberstadt exit of the A8 towards Luxembourg will be closed until the end of September 2025. This is the result of extensive construction work, which, according to a statement from the West branch of Autobahn GmbH, is necessary to completely renew the exit button. Road users must be prepared for significant disruption, even if the work is primarily carried out during off-peak times.

Traffic will be rerouted via the nearby Neunkirchen-Spiesen junction. A corresponding diversion route will be signposted to make it easier for drivers to navigate during construction work. Despite these measures, traffic disruptions cannot be ruled out. It is therefore advisable to follow the traffic reports on the radio and take possible disruptions into account when planning your route.

Recommendations for drivers

The West branch of Autobahn GmbH asks road users to drive carefully and understand the expected traffic disruptions. Drivers should also ensure that they allow enough time for the diversion route. The construction work is scheduled to last until the end of September 2025 and is an important step towards improving the transport infrastructure in this region.

In summary, the ongoing development on the A8 has far-reaching consequences for commuters and travelers towards Luxembourg. Thorough preparation and following traffic instructions can help minimize the impact of the construction site. Further information on the current traffic situation is published regularly on the official channels. For further details we refer to the reporting by SOL.DE and Autobahn.de.
