Transport chaos in western Austria: traffic jams in Tyrol and Salzburg relentless!
A devastating traffic jam chaos paralyzed travel in Western Austria on Saturday. According to the ÖAMTC, drivers had to expect significant delays in Tyrol, Salzburg and Styria. On the Tauern Autobahn (A10) between Golling and Throwing, due to a construction site, there were up to an hour in both directions, such as OE24 .
The Inn Valley Autobahn (A12) was particularly stressed towards Germany from Kirchbichl. The Fernpassstraße (B179) also recorded traffic jam between Nasserith and the Fernpass as well as between Heiterswang and Reutte. In Salzburg it looked bad on Pinzgauer Straße (B311) towards St. Johann and Salzachtalstrasse (B159). Ennstalstrasse (B320) in Styria was also overloaded between Schladming and Pruggern. It is only to be hoped for an improvement in traffic, such as StumMelder-karte reported .critical traffic situation on the Tauern Autobahn
The Tauern Autobahn, one of the main connections for vacationers from Germany to Italy, was particularly badly affected. Building measures between Flachau and Flachauwinkel ensured another bottleneck because the road was narrowed onto a lane. Causes were already reported on Saturday morning from 5:57 a.m., and the traffic situation was tense until noon. On the Tauern motorway, the traffic jam extends from St. Michael im Lungau to throwing, which makes the journey into the last winter holiday weekend considerably difficult.
The Tauern motorway has a length of 194 km and combines important nodes. Despite the construction collateral, such as the additional tunnel for relief for traffic, the highway remains a needle leaver during the main travel times, which shows that a sustainable solution for equalization is necessary. As last weekend, traffic jams will probably remain a common problem in the future.
