Motorway closed: recovery of overturned truck on A58 in full swing

The A58 at Moergestel in the direction of Eindhoven is closed. Man and power are working on the recovery of a truck that ended up in the ditch next to this highway on Wednesday morning.

A grab crane destroys the first trailer behind the truck, because it is badly damaged. Recovery companies take supermarket items for a second life from the second trailer.

After the truck with two trailers has been recovered, Rijkswaterstaat will carry out repair work. For example, employees will have to re-install a large piece of crash barrier. On Wednesday afternoon, a spokesperson for Rijkswaterstaat called the salvage ‘complicated’. It is not yet clear how long the road will remain closed.

Redirects
Traffic from Rotterdam to Eindhoven will be diverted from 7 a.m. on Wednesday evening via the A59 and A2. From Tilburg to Eindhoven, traffic has to drive on the A65, N65 and A2.
