Berlin is grappling with significant infrastructure challenges, particularly concerning its bridges and roads. The Wegedorn Bridge construction site has faced delays, causing frustration among local businesses due to a lack of communication from the district office. The bridge, closed since July 2024, is expected to reopen to traffic by April 2025, with ongoing work needed on sidewalks and other structures.
Meanwhile, the Ringbahnbrücke on the A100 is scheduled for demolition to ensure safety and restore traffic flow. The government has allocated 150 million euros for its replacement, but the new structure may take years to complete, prolonging traffic disruptions.
Elsewhere, the A2 near Alleringersleben is undergoing extensive roadworks, extended until June due to adverse weather and additional work requirements. Despite efforts to optimize traffic flow, commuters continue to face delays.
In Bad Schandau, a bridge load test concluded successfully, paving the way for potential partial reopening. These infrastructure issues underline the broader challenges posed by aging structures and the need for effective planning to minimize impact on residents and businesses.
