Strong travel volume to Vorarlberg: Tips for stress -free driving!

At the beginning of the semester break in Vorarlberg, a massive volume of traffic on the main traffic routes is expected to the ski areas. ASFINAG and the ÖAMTC warn that there are considerable delays in particular on weekends and before and after the lift closing. An additional factor are the end of the holiday in Vienna and Lower Austria as well as travel traffic from Germany and the Czech Republic, which also contains the streets to Vorarlberg. In order to defuse the situation, an expanded truck-ending ban in Tyrol will apply by March 15, which should keep trucks over 7.5 tons on Saturday between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m. href = "https://www.vol.at/start-der-semesterferien-in-vorarlberg-starker- Reise-wartet/9202414"> Vol.at reported.

The persistent demand for travel options to Vorarlberg is supported by numerous direct rail connections. The Austrian Federal Railways (ÖBB) offer several daily long-distance trains, including car trips and night trains that combine Vienna and East and South Austria with Vorarlberg. From December 15, 2024, the Westbahn will connect Vorarlberg to Vienna twice a day and shorten the travel time. Deutsche Bahn also enables a Cómoda journey from Germany with a daily railjet direct connection from Frankfurt. During the holiday season, these connections are of crucial importance to cope with the travel current. The ÖAMTC recommends checking the travel times and avoiding stammering areas, especially on the A10, which will be strongly frequented due to the Alpine World Ski Championship in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, which takes place from 4 to 16 February, as vorarlberg.travel highlighted.
