The A255 south of Hamburg's Elbe bridges is only a few kilometers long.
But it bundles the traffic flows from several directions.
In order to avoid long traffic jams, the redevelopment plan was stretched - with new inconveniences for drivers in the next year.
Hamburg - The renovation of the A255 in front of the Hamburg Elbe bridges, which began at the beginning of July, has been delayed again.
For the time being, the work should be finished by mid-November, said the spokesman for Autobahn GmbH Nord, Christian Merl.
Then the busy connection between the A1 autobahn (Bremen-Lübeck) and downtown Hamburg will again be accessible to six lanes.
After the nightly dismantling of the construction site-related traffic routing this weekend, the renewal of the lane lamellas on the bridge over the Müggenburg customs port has to be completed.
In addition, some guard rails are still missing.

In the next year the Autobahn GmbH wants to tackle the neuralgic traffic junction again.
A section of the road to the south and a small section towards the center of Hamburg still have to be rehabilitated.
The background to the delay is the long traffic jams that formed after construction work began in the summer.
The planners then decided to extend the renovation.
The interruption is now necessary because asphalt work made no sense in winter, explained Merl.
The renovation was originally supposed to be completed in September, then by the end of October.
The motorway, also known as the Veddel junction, is used by around 116,000 vehicles on working days, mainly by commuters from the south and east of Hamburg and from Lower Saxony.
