Weekend closure of A27 between junction Everdingen and junction Gorinchem
From Friday, March 27 at 10:00 PM until Monday, March 30 at 5:00 AM, the A27 towards Breda will be closed between junction Everdingen and junction Gorinchem.
During this weekend, ALSÉÉN will be working on a culvert near Groote Haar and carrying out work for the highway widening.
Detour
Traffic heading towards Breda will be diverted from junction Everdingen via the A2 and A15. Local traffic will be diverted via the N214 and N216. Yellow road signs will indicate the detour routes. Allow for an additional travel time of up to 30 minutes.
Public transport
Public transport will not be able to use all parts of the A27 during the roadworks and will therefore have to take alternative routes. Check the travel planner(Verwijst naar een externe website) to see if this affects your journey. Always check the current timetable before departure.
Road improvement A27 Houten - Hooipolder
Long traffic jams occur daily on the A27 between junction Hooipolder and Houten. That is why Rijkswaterstaat is widening and renewing the A27 over a distance of 47 kilometers in the coming years. Four major bridges will also be upgraded, peak-hour lanes will be added, and approximately 60 viaducts and other structures will be modified. This will improve traffic flow in the future and enhance livability in the region by reducing congestion and rat-running.
