A 93: Massive construction work from April - traffic jams and detours are threatened!

From the beginning of April 2025, a thorough renovation of the roadway will begin on the A 93 between the Regensburg-Süd junction and the Saalhaupt triangle. This measure is part of a comprehensive renovation project that will result in significant traffic restrictions, as reported by schierling.de. The affected route is approximately 11 kilometers long and has been in operation since 1984. The demolition of the old concrete roadway and the new construction of the road surface will be carried out to a depth of 1.50 meters. The renewal of the drainage pipes and work on underpass structures are also on the agenda.

The first restrictions on the route will come into force as early as March 19, 2025: then traffic flow in the direction of Munich will only apply over two narrowed lanes. In addition, from March 23, 2025, only one lane will be available in the direction of Regensburg. These disruptions will last until December 2025, with road users urged to stay on the motorway in the event of traffic jams. The direct crossing from the A 93 to the A 3 in the direction of Passau will also not be possible during the work and will be rerouted accordingly.

Details about traffic restrictions

According to information from autobahn.de, extensive traffic restrictions are to be expected at both the Saalhaupt triangle and the Regensburg-Süd junction from the end of March 2025. In addition, the exit from Munich at the Regensburg-Süd junction will be closed until mid-May 2025, with a replacement exit via Bad Abbach being designated. In the direction of Munich, a stop point will be set up at the entrance to the A 93, also by mid-May.

The rehabilitation project will not only affect the roadways, but will also increase noise pollution, especially during the demolition of the old roadway. According to statista.com, such measures are particularly urgent in Germany after the incident of the collapse of the Carola Bridge in Dresden in 2024. The federal government has decided on a renovation package of around 500 billion euros to improve the country's infrastructure.

For the future it is important that transport users also have access to the special project website www.a93-fahrbahnerneuerung.de Stay informed, which provides an overview of the upcoming main work in 2025 as well as the current traffic restrictions.

Overall, the project reflects the need to invest in the maintenance and expansion of the federal highway network, an issue that is becoming increasingly important in Germany.
