New Policy for Doubledecker Vehicles: Driving Limits for Operators

The B 169 between Gadewitz and Salbitz is undergoing an extensive renovation, with work set to commence south of the Autobahn bridge at Döbeln-Nord on Monday. This project, which is expected to continue until the end of November, is part of a larger initiative to upgrade roads in the region.

The renovation work, costing 7.7 million euros, aims to improve the safety and condition of the road, making it smoother and more durable. Motorists should expect traffic restrictions at the county border to Nordsachsen due to the B 169 renovation.

During the renovation, the on- and off-ramps towards Leipzig will be closed. Detours during the renovation will be via nearby interchanges, specifically the interchanges at Döbeln-Nord and Döbeln-Süd.

The total length of the B 169 that will be repaired is over nine kilometers, with the focus on the section between Döbeln-Nord and Salbitz. The asphalt renewal is expected to take approximately one month, assuming no unforeseen delays.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information about roadwork on B 169 between Gadewitz and Salbitz, including closure dates and detour routes on ramps towards Leipzig, it is recommended to check the official website or traffic information portal of the Saxony state road authority (Sächsisches Staatsministerium für Wirtschaft, Arbeit und Verkehr), local traffic news websites or apps (like ADAC, or regional news outlets), or navigation apps (Google Maps, Waze) which often provide live construction updates and detours.
