Road Accidents Cause Severe Injuries in Langen, Bringing Turmoil to Surrounding Bypass Roads
In the heart of Langen-Oberlinden, two head-on car collisions occurred on Tuesday evening, causing significant traffic disruptions during rush hour.
The first accident took place around 18:00 on the roundabout at Pittlerstraße, situated on the Moerfelder Landstraße. The weather conditions at the time were poor and dark, but details about the causality of the collision are not available. Fortunately, it was confirmed that the accident did not involve a pedestrian.
Just 40 minutes later, a second accident occurred on a detour route due to the initial closure of the K168. This accident took place on the detour route between Langen and Egelsbach. The second accident was also a head-on collision, and the weather conditions during this incident were equally poor and dark. No details about the causality of the second accident are available.
The second accident caused traffic chaos in the region, with many drivers being forced to take the Moerfelder Landstraße as an alternative due to the closure of the K168. The additional accident at Pittlerstraße contributed to significant traffic jams in and around Langen-Oberlinden.
It was initially unclear whether anyone was injured in the collision at Pittlerstraße. However, it was confirmed that the injured parties from both accidents were taken to a hospital by ambulance. Remarkably, no rescue helicopter was deployed for either of the accidents.
The closure of the K168 and the subsequent accidents at Pittlerstraße and on the detour route led to a chaotic traffic situation in the region. The authorities are currently investigating the causes of these accidents and will provide updates as more information becomes available.
