Pforzheim (dpa / lsw) - A fire broke out on the premises of a waste disposal company in Pforzheim for the second time within a month. Federal highway 294 is closed. In addition, the rail traffic near Pforzheim is at a standstill because the extinguishing water supply also runs via the nearby tracks in the south-west of the city, the police said on Tuesday evening.
