Traffic chaos in Igelsdorf: A73 closed until tomorrow due to construction site!
Right now, on June 12, 2025, there are daily traffic restrictions on the A73 in the Bavaria area that drivers should take note of. The Highway Department has announced that major construction work will be carried out between 10:12 p.m. this evening and 3:00 a.m. on June 13, 2025. These concern a 500 meter long section between Möhrendorf (AS 30) and Baiersdorf-Nord (AS 29) in the direction of Bamberg.

It is therefore advisable to consider alternative routes or, if possible, adjust the travel time.
Why construction sites are important
Construction sites are often unavoidable in order to keep the transport infrastructure in good condition. According to stmb.bayern.de, maintenance measures are regularly necessary to ensure the safety and functionality of the roads. The modernization of the motorways is also taking place against the background of high traffic demand, which is continually increasing. Properly organized construction site management should help to keep the general disruption to drivers as low as possible.
The current work involves measures for which the newly founded Autobahn GmbH of the federal government is responsible. This institution has been responsible for all construction sites on motorways since January 1, 2021 and has taken over a large part of the former motorway directorates. Information about this is available on the relevant branch websites; the BayernInfo platform can also provide additional details.
Current traffic situation on the A73
The A73, also known as the federal highway 73, stretches over 167.2 kilometers from the Suhl triangle to the Nürnberg/Feucht triangle. In addition to the construction site between Möhrendorf and Baiersdorf-Nord, there are currently several other closures due to extensive construction sites. For example, from June 2nd to July 26th, 2025, various junctions near Neustadt bei Coburg will be affected, requiring a diversion. These closures can also lead to increased waiting times, as stau-check.de notes.
Drivers are asked to be particularly careful and to inform themselves about the current traffic situation before setting off. If you still have to use the motorway, you should pay attention to the signposted detours and be patient.
As exciting as a journey on the Bavarian motorways can be, planning and obtaining information are the be-all and end-all to get to your destination stress-free!
