Traffic chaos in Wangen: A96 closed for up to 6 hours due to construction site!
The traffic situation on the A96 in Wangen im Allgäu is problematic today, May 28, 2025. Between 1:52 p.m. and 7:00 p.m. traffic disruptions are expected on the route from Lindau to Munich at the level of the Untere Argen viaduct. The reason for this is a construction site with a length of 499 meters that was set up in this area. The Bavarian Traffic Management Central Office warns of slow traffic and possible isolated traffic jams during this time. Restrictions are to be expected, particularly between the Untere Argen valley bridge and the Wangen-West exit.
Current reports confirm the traffic situation on the A96. At 1:47 p.m., cleaning work was reported on the right lane between Weißensberg and Wangen-West, which also led to traffic delays. Shortly before, at 1:41 p.m., all accident sites between Munich-Sendling and Munich-Laim had been cleared and there were no further traffic disruptions. These updates have been provided by stau.info and provide an overview of current traffic reports for the day.
Traffic situation on other sections of the A96
The A96 is consistently unsteady today. Reports report various construction sites and traffic jams in different areas. At 2:25 p.m. it was announced that the exits in Jengen/Kaufbeuren had reopened, which was positive news for travelers. In addition, there were several reports of obstructions and construction sites during the morning, although, as the last report from May 27th shows, these were usually resolved quickly.
Particularly careful drivers have registered many reports of obstructions on the A96 in recent days, such as the one between the Obere Argen valley bridge and Weißensberg, which was lifted at 10:33 a.m. Traffic remains tense due to the current construction sites and cleaning work.
Road users should prepare for journeys through this area to take longer. It is advisable to plan alternative routes or query the current situation using traffic control systems or apps to avoid unforeseen delays. The situation remains tense and the relevant authorities are working to improve traffic conditions as quickly as possible.
