You’re sticking again! Also on Thursday morning, climate activists are again responsible for blocked motorway exits and traffic jams during rush hour.
The Konstanzer Straße, Sachsendamm and Tempelhofer Damm exits were affected. There was a traffic jam in all directions at the Wilmersdorf and Schöneberg junctions.
Several people were glued to the roadway, police said. Around 9:30 a.m., the emergency services had largely cleared the exits, so that the traffic jams slowly cleared.

“For the second day in a row, the climate activists of the last generation are bringing traffic on the Berlin A100 city motorway to a standstill today. Once again, with the peaceful disruption of everyday life, the citizens are making demands on Chancellor Scholz: The ‘Climate Chancellor’ should live up to his name and speak out against new oil drilling in the North Sea,” said the activists from the “Last Generation” on their website With.
