Rudolf-Wissell-Brücke structural damage and closures

Overview

The Rudolf-Wissell-Brücke on the A100 motorway in Berlin, the city’s longest road bridge, has faced traffic restrictions following the discovery of a defective tension link. While Autobahn GmbH stated that a full demolition is not required due to the bridge’s unique construction, the structure cannot sustain full loads until repairs are finished.

As of early October, outer lanes were closed, with the right lane expected to be impassable for approximately two weeks. By late October, the bridge remained partially closed, with external experts conducting inspections. Results from these evaluations are expected in mid-November.
