Mining Regions' Infrastructure Update: The A72 Highway Entirely Shut Down
Road Closure Affects A72 Feeder Road in Zwönitz, Ore Mountains
The A72 feeder road in Zwönitz, Ore Mountains, is undergoing renovation, causing a complete closure from the intersection of S 270 (Annaberger Straße) to the entrance of Holzhandel. This closure, estimated to last until approximately August 8th, will affect commuter traffic and day-trippers alike.
During this period, a detour route has been established. Motorists will need to travel via Elterlein, Grünhaain, and then back to Zwönitz to bypass the work zone. It is advisable to plan ahead if you are heading to the dam or Geyer, as potential delays may be expected at the intersection of S 258/S 270.
Construction activities will lead to traffic light delays, and a construction traffic light is in place at the intersection of S 258/S 270 to regulate traffic flow. The same detour route applies in the opposite direction, and commuters and day-trippers may experience delays at this intersection.
The estimated cost of these road works is 115,000 euros. The Ore Mountains region has recently been in the news for a motorcycle crash, a missing man, and the first electric bus in operation.
For updated traffic information, we recommend checking local traffic authority websites or navigation apps to ensure a smooth journey. Please allow extra time for your travel during this period and follow posted detour signs.
