Parts of a roller coaster are from a truck to the A7 near Ellenberg (Ostalbkreis) and paralyzed traffic. The truck was heading towards the Virngrund tunnel early Thursday morning as a result of a tire burst shortly after Wuerzburg crashed into the central barrier. It tipped over and the loaded metal parts spread in both directions on the freeway. The driver suffered minor injuries, a police spokesman said.
The A7 in the direction of travel Ulm was released again in the morning, an eleven-kilometer traffic jam formed. The direction of travel to Würzburg was initially blocked due to the clean-up work. According to initial estimates, the police are assuming a high level of property damage. (dpa/lsw)
