Due to the half marathon this Sunday, there have already been restrictions on road traffic since Friday.

Since the morning, the Straße des 17. Juni between Yitzhak-Rabin-Straße and Brandenburger Tor has been closed, according to the traffic information centre (VIZ). From the evening on, the closure should be extended to Großer Stern due to the half marathon. Then Ebertstraße between Behrenstraße (exclusively) and Scheidemannstraße (inclusively) should also be impassable. On Sunday, the street Unter den Linden will then also be closed between Brandenburg Gate and Friedrichstraße. From around 3 p.m., the closures would gradually be lifted again.
