Ongoing Construction Delays Affect Traffic in Oberhausen
The city of Oberhausen is currently experiencing delays in construction sites, particularly affecting the A42 motorway on-ramp at Oberhausen-Zentrum. These delays are primarily due to ongoing complex roadworks and infrastructure upgrades aimed at improving traffic flow in this heavily trafficked Ruhr area.
A42 On-ramp at Oberhausen-Zentrum to Reopen
Good news for commuters! The A42 on-ramp at Oberhausen-Zentrum, which has been closed for months, is expected to reopen on Monday, September 29, 2025. However, specific detailed reopening dates are not provided, and it is reasonable to expect that reopening will be coordinated to minimize rush-hour impact, likely after completion of major structural upgrades typical for this area’s motorway infrastructure.
Alternative Routes and Detours
During the closure, traffic participants from the north would have to take a detour via Schenkendorfstraße / Arndtstraße. It is also worth noting that the bridge on Weierstraße remains closed to cars, pedestrians, and cyclists until Friday, August 22, 2025.
Road Surface Renovation Postponed
The road surface renovation on Mülheimer Straße, which was scheduled to take place between the entrance to "Hagebaumarkt Ziesak" and Brücktorstraße, has been postponed. The city has not yet announced a new date for this renovation.
