Truck blocks City road causing major morning traffic jams
A truck blocking three lanes in the City centre caused major delays for drivers in the capital on Wednesday morning.
(MSS) Traffic jams quickly built up in Luxembourg City on Wednesday morning when a truck blocked three lanes of the Boulevard de la Foire and rue Nicolas Adames by the Glacis in Limpertsberg.
Unable to move from the spot it had stopped on straddling the road, and with the breakdown services not arriving quickly, traffic jams spread to Route d'Arlon, Rollingergrund, Kirchberg and the A1 motorway by the Cargo Center.
It was only at around 10.30am the police and breakdown services managed to clear the junction and remove the truck.
It is assumed that the truck had broken down, but this was not communicated in the police report.
