Danger of traffic jams in Munich! A99 closed until late in the evening due to construction work

November 4th, 2025 brought with it some unpleasant traffic restrictions for many Munich drivers. Due to construction work on the A99 between the Munich-West junction (8) and the Munich-Allach junction, road users have to prepare for a closure. This will last from 12:46 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and covers a section of 495 meters. Especially during this time, increased traffic volumes and possible traffic jams are to be expected. Motorists are urged to drive carefully and consider alternative routes where possible. This reports [News.de](https://www.news.de/amp/auto/859083925/verkehrsmelde-muenchen-zur-verkehrsstoerung-wegen-baustelle-sperrung-eins chraenkung-on-04-11-2025-restrictions-in-traffic-danger-of-congestion-in-munich-zip-code-80999-allach-untermenzing-allach-auf-a99/1/).

The construction site is already causing a stir in the Munich area, but this is not the only traffic disruption that could be fatal for drivers today. A serious traffic accident on the A99 also led to the motorway being completely closed in the direction of Salzburg. According to initial reports, a 27-year-old crashed into a concrete wall for an unknown reason and then stopped in the left lane. Tragically, the 79-year-old wife of another driver who was trying to help her and his grandson died after discovering the accident. The other two people involved were taken to hospital with serious injuries. This led to a kilometer-long backlog that was cleared after around ten hours.

The importance of mindfulness on the road

In the midst of such tragic events, the issues of mindfulness and safety on the roads become particularly important. While construction sites and accidents often disrupt the flow of traffic, all road users should continue to exercise caution. This discipline can not only prevent accidents, but also avoid stubborn traffic jams. The authorities ask all drivers to adapt to the circumstances and be considerate of others.

Today's incidents illustrate how important it is not only to think about your own well-being when using the motorways, but also to keep the needs of other road users in mind. Such situations make us think - about caution in everyday life and the fragility of life.

This day is rounded off with a completely different perspective that some Munich residents could discover in their free time today. In many cultures, mandalas symbolize a type of connection between mind and body. These colorful, often complex patterns, which traditionally play a role in Buddhism and Hinduism, are also becoming increasingly popular in the Western world. Mandalas not only offer an opportunity to relax, but also promote creativity and mindfulness in everyday life. Coloring mandalas has proven to be an effective method for dealing with stress.
