Traffic chaos on the marathon Sunday: How to master the diversions!

Wien, Österreich - On April 6, 2025, the Vienna City Marathon, which not only attracts numerous runners, will also lead to considerable traffic impairments in the city. The ÖAMTC has provided comprehensive information on the entrances and departures on the marathon Sunday in order to prepare residents and visitors for the changed conditions. According to Oots.at from Friday, April 4 to 8:00 a.m., at 8:00 p.m. between Stadiongasse and Schottengasse completely blocked.

The descents and access roads from 1st and 9th district towards 2nd and 20th district are possible until around 8:30 a.m. via various bridges such as the Friedensbrücke and the Rossauer Brücke. After that, however, the routes are severely restricted. From 11:20 a.m., the traffic from 1st and 9th district towards A23 is only led via isolated roads, which results in significant diversion measures.

traffic steering and diversions

The districts within the belt and parts of the 2nd and 20th district are particularly affected. The ÖAMTC recommends avoiding them in a large scale on these days and parking the car the day before in a garage or in a public parking lot outside the districts concerned. This should avoid traffic jams and additional loads in road traffic. The information hotline of the ÖAMTC is available for more detailed information on blocking times and crossing options.

The running route of the Vienna City Marathon extends over a variety of streets in Vienna, starting with Wagramer Straße between Schüttustraße and Archdow-Karl-Straße, where the start takes place at 9:00 a.m. The participants have to cross numerous striking points up to the destinations near the Burgtheater, including the Praterstern, the ring and the many ring road sections, as reported by .

The running competitions include both the classic marathon over 42.195 km as well as the relay marathon and the half marathon over 21.097 km. The arrangement in terms of traffic steering has a high priority in order to guarantee the runners smoothly. The subways will run into denser intervals on the marathon Sunday, which should ensure better connection and comfort against the road closures.

participation and viewer

spectators are invited to cheer on the participants on the route, especially in the so -called yellow fanzone on the Schubertring. The ÖAMTC also provides e-bike breakdown aid in the city center to help immediately with possible technical defects. This enables both the participants and the spectators to have a positive event experience.

Further information on the event and the associated traffic measures can also be found on the website of ORF Oberösterreich .
