Disruption on A9 Highway: Crucial Route to Munich Temporarily Blocked
The A9 Autobahn in Bavaria, one of Germany's most important north-south axes, will experience two significant closures during the summer holidays of 2025. These closures are part of the ongoing maintenance and modernization efforts on the A9, particularly in the heavily trafficked stretch between Nuremberg, Ingolstadt, and Munich.
Closure Details
- Between Denkendorf and Lenting, the A9 will be fully closed in the direction of Munich from 10 PM on August 11 until about 5 AM on August 12, 2025.
- The Lenting interchange (Anschlussstelle Lenting) towards Nuremberg will be fully closed from around 12 PM on August 3 until 12 PM on August 18, 2025.
Travel Advice and Detours
For the closure between Denkendorf and Lenting (August 11-12), travelers should expect significant disruptions and plan alternative routes during the night closure since the Autobahn is fully blocked in the Munich direction.
For the longer closure at the Lenting interchange (August 3-18), drivers cannot enter or exit the A9 in the direction towards Nuremberg at Lenting. Alternative routes or other nearby interchanges should be used.
Traffic congestion and slowdowns are reported regularly between Lenting and Denkendorf during this period, so planning for extra travel time is advised.

- Due to the maintenance and modernization of the A9 Autobahn in Bavaria, one can anticipate changes in their travel lifestyle during the summer holidays of 2025, as a shift towards exploring alternative routes might be necessary.
