Full closure of the A1: Large construction site from February 12th in Koblenz!

Full closure of the A1: Large construction site from February 12th in Koblenz!
On February 12, 2025, a full closure will occur on the A1 in the direction of Koblenz. The measure is necessary to carry out marking work in the area of the Feller Valley Bridge. During this period, the section between the Mehring junction (AS) and the motorway triangle (ad) Moselle valley will not be passable. The blocking is scheduled for the period from 8:30 a.m. to around 4:00 p.m., whereby a possible shift to February 13, 2025 is not excluded.
The current work includes the replacement of the previous marking by permanent yellow marking, which is specially intended for the construction site area. During the block, a local diversion is set up, which runs the road users from AS Mehring via the L150 through the places Fell and Fastrau to return to the A1 in the direction of Cologne/Koblenz. Autobahn GmbH asks all drivers for careful driving style and understanding of the upcoming traffic impairments, especially in the direction of Saarbrücken, where only one trace is available.
background of the construction work
The upcoming marking work is part of a comprehensive maintenance project of the Feller Valley Bridge, which began in 2024 with the first construction phase. During this period, extensive repair work on the Cologne/Koblenz directional lane was completed. Construction site traffic on the road towards Saarbrücken, on the other hand, was set up in spring 2024 to guarantee safe traffic routing from the Moselltal motorway triangle up to about two kilometers behind the Fellertal Bridge. A height difference between the directional lanes did not allow direct transition.
The second construction phase of the work begins in spring 2025 and includes the renewal of the road surface as well as other structural measures such as the exchange of bridge caps, protective devices, bridge seals and road crossings. The planned completion of this section will be sought by the end of 2025. Speed restrictions apply during the entire maintenance project: Until the work is completed, restrictions to 80 km/h will exist for the construction site area and 60 km/h in areas of medium -sized strips.
future construction phases
From January 27, 2025, traffic will be redirected to the already maintained section of the Cologne/Koblenz directional lane. Until the end of the overall project, however, the road users must expect narrowed lanes in the direction of Saarbrücken and in the direction of Cologne/Koblenz. The third construction phase for repairing the bridge bearings is planned for spring 2026 and should only bring low traffic restrictions.
Further information on the respective measures is made public by the responsible bodies in due course. Autobahn GmbH appeals to the road users to use the construction site app and other official information channels for current updates. Sol.de reports that the entire measure is of fundamental importance in order to ensure the security and the flow of traffic on the A1 in the long term. At autobahn.de the details of the traffic management during the construction work can also be found further information on the ongoing maintenance projects.
