Double Closure of the A12 in the Netherlands: Traffic Jams and Detours to Paralyze Transport

The Dutch A12 motorway, one of the key routes for international transport, will be completely closed twice in 2025. Each closure will last for 9 consecutive days and nights, with the affected section stretching from Veenendaal to Utrecht (approximately 30 km) – one of the most frequently used corridors by freight carriers transiting through the Netherlands.

Rijkswaterstaat – the Dutch road authority – has announced a major resurfacing project. The old asphalt will be completely removed and replaced with new pavement using so-called "silent asphalt" technology, aimed at reducing noise levels in the surrounding areas. Dutch authorities are already warning of severe traffic congestion and delays that may extend travel times by more than an hour.

A12 Closure Dates


❌ May 9 (Friday), 8:00 PM – May 19 (Monday), 5:00 AM
❌ August 22 (Friday), 8:00 PM – September 1 (Monday), 5:00 AM

Plans for the closure of the opposite direction (Utrecht → Veenendaal) are still under development, but similar disruptions can be expected along that stretch as well.
