Extensive tree felling is pending on the A 8 in the direction of Salzburg.
Drivers have to be prepared for traffic obstructions caused by lanes being closed.
Extensive tree felling is due on Monday on the A 8 in the direction of Salzburg.
According to the southern Bavaria autobahn directorate, the section between the Leitzachsenke and the Irschenberg junction is affected.
Drivers have to be prepared for traffic obstructions caused by temporary closures of lanes.
According to the Autobahn Directorate, the felling is a security measure.
An independent expert identified 35 large “danger trees”.
They suffered from stem rot and fungal attack in the stem and crown area and had already partially died.
Because they are in the first row to the autobahn, they represent an "immediate danger" to road safety.
The work will be carried out from Monday, December 7th to Wednesday, December 9th, from 7.30 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. at the latest.
During this period, two of the three existing lanes are temporarily blocked.
From Monday, December 14th to Wednesday, December 16th, the forest workers change the side of the road, which affects the section in the direction of Munich from the closures, here daily from 7.30 a.m. to 3.30 p.m.
The Autobahn Directorate asks for your understanding for the unavoidable traffic obstructions and recommends that drivers allow sufficient time.
