Water pipe break in Spandau: Brunsbütteler Damm remains closed for weeks!

A heavy water pipe break on the Brunsbütteler Damm in Berlin-Spandau causes considerable traffic problems. On the night of Saturday there was a defective fresh water tube at the Brunsbütteler Damm and Magistratsweg intersection, which had water bubbled out of the foundation of a traffic light. The Situation became so serious that the water flooded the lane and the road was washed out, which endangered the safety of pedestrians and drivers. Alarmed officers from the police, fire brigade and employees of the Berlin water companies quickly ensured a large -scale blocking of the affected area to prevent further damage, reports B.Z.

The repair work will take several weeks according to the latest information from the Berlin Transport Information Center. The Brunsbütteler Damm between Grünhofer Weg and Elsflether Weg remains closed to car traffic until the leak has been fully remedied, which will lead to far-reaching detours and traffic jams. Technology teams are on site to secure the damaged traffic lights and locate the leak, as Berliner Zeitung reported. Drivers should avoid the area in the coming days when the work progresses.

Because of the dramatic incident, not only the streets are affected, but also uncertain waiting times for residents and road users. The rebuilding of the road, and the extensive repair, will probably take up to four weeks, which brings an uncertain time for the residents, as alternative routes have to be sought. The water pipe brake event on the Brunsbütteler Damm is not only a short -term problem, but will significantly impair mobility in the area over a longer period of time.
