Locking the A2 in Eilsleben: truck accident and synthetic resin chaos!

Eilsleben, Deutschland - on Autobahn 2 there have been several incidents in the past few days that led to extensive closures. The route in the Börde district is currently closed between Eilsleben and Irxleben after a truck driver lost liquid synthetic resin on Wednesday evening. According to MDR, the right track is affected by the fabric over a route of 15 kilometers, which was stuck on the road and dried there. The exact cause of the leak of the containers and the late perception by the driver are still unclear. In order to clean the road, a blocking towards Berlin, which is expected to last for several hours, was necessary, according to the police until at least noon.

Already on Wednesday afternoon another part of the Autobahn 2 between Alleringen's life and Eilsleben was released again after hours of closure. This blocking was the result of a previous accident in which a dangerous goods van with several canisters was involved. This accident happened on Tuesday, July 9, and the driver of the small van suffered life -threatening injuries when he crashed into a standing traffic jam. The incident occurred at a large construction site and resulted in extensive rescue work that paralyzed the highway for two and a half hours. As n-tv reported a barrier of 15 meters around the scene of the accident, and luckily no risk of explosion was determined. Environmental office was informed.
