A46 in Germany closed in both directions ➡ detours in place
Drivers traveling through North Rhine-Westphalia this coming weekend should prepare for major disruptions. Due to construction work in the Wuppertal-Cronenberg area, the A46 motorway will be completely closed in both directions between the Sonnborner Kreuz interchange and the Wuppertal-Cronenberg exit.
The closure will be in effect from Friday, 25 July 2025 at 9:00 p.m. until Monday, 28 July 2025 at 5:00 a.m.
Alternative detour routes will be in place during the closure:
❌ so-called red dot routes (signposted detours via lower-category roads),
❌ broader detours using the surrounding motorway network.
The works are part of an infrastructure modernization and the expansion of the traffic junction in Wuppertal. The closure affects one of the key sections of the A46, a major east–west connection in the region, so increased traffic volumes are expected on the detour routes.
