Extreme heat, with temperatures soaring to 39 degrees Celsius, has caused concrete on Germany's autobahns to expand, creating cracks and traffic jams. The repair work, scheduled for this weekend, will affect traffic as the summer vacation begins. Older, heavily-used motorways are most affected. Authorities have implemented safety measures, including speed limits on these stretches.
