Serious accident on BAB 43: Fire brigade fights against oil pollution!

On Sunday evening there was a serious traffic accident on the BAB 43 between Sprockhövel and Witten-Herbede with two vehicles involved. The Sprockhövel fire brigade was alerted around 11 p.m. to ensure fire protection and bind the expired equipment. A total of three people were injured and the emergency services took care of their care. The road had to be completely closed until the accident vehicles towards Münster.

Just a little later, after midnight, the fire brigade was again called for an assignment in Haßlinghauser Strasse. There was a defect on the trailer during a heavy transport, which resulted in significant amounts of hydraulic oil. Emergency services scattered the contaminated area with binders and an urban cleaning team ensured the cleaning of the roadway area. The transported truck could continue after a repair at night. A special company was involved to properly remove and dispose of the contaminated ground. The lower water authority was also on site to assess the Situation.
