The old Mulde Bridge on Highway 14 near Grimma is scheduled to be demolished this Sunday. To this end, the A 14 between the Grimma and Mutzschen interchanges will be completely closed in both directions from 9:30 a.m. until approximately 3:00 p.m., according to the planning company Deges. The detour will run via the S38 and the B107 and will be appropriately signposted. In addition, a safety zone has been established within a 300-meter radius of the bridge, which will be cordoned off by police. A ban on drone flights is also in effect. The demolition is scheduled for 11:00 a.m. According to reports, the condition of the structure, which dates back to the 1970s, had deteriorated significantly due to increasing traffic. For this reason, it is being replaced with a new bridge. Since August, all highway traffic has been routed entirely via a temporary bridge. After the old bridge is demolished, a new bridge will be built in its place. It is scheduled to be completed in 2029. Copyright 2026, dpa (www.dpa.de). All rights reserved
