The "NordicCombinedTriple" in Seefeld and the "UpperAustriaLadies" are considered crowd pullers in their sports. The result: traffic jams and long delays.
Start of Semester Break This Coming Weekend Brings Traffic Jams
28-01-2025, 10:48
This coming weekend, around 445,000 students in Lower Austria and Vienna will start their one-week semester break. Similarly, about 2.5 million of their "fellow sufferers" in the German states of Berlin, Brandenburg, Bremen, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Lower Saxony, and Thuringia can enjoy a week off school.
The end of the first half of the school year on Friday, 31.01.2025, not only brings the distribution of report cards, but also the first wave of travel this weekend. "Those wishing to travel from the two state capitals and the transit routes in the east will be particularly affected from the afternoon hours," the ARBÖ traffic experts know from experience.
Traffic Jams and Delays
Motorists should expect significantly longer travel times into the evening on the following routes:
- West Motorway (A1), in the greater Vienna area and around Sankt Pölten
- South Motorway (A2), between the Vienna city limit and Guntramsdorf junction as well as between Wiener Neustadt and Seebenstein junction
- East Motorway (A4), between the Prater junction and Fischamend
- Danube Bank Motorway (A22), in the city area of Vienna and at Stockerau
- Southeast tangent (A23) throughout its entire course
- Altmannsdorfer Street, between Grünberg Street and the Altmannsdorfer branch in Vienna
- Triester Street (B17), between Matzleinsdorfer Square and South Motorway in Vienna
- Franz-Josefs-Kai, Belt and Ring in Vienna intermittently throughout the entire course
Second Wave of Travel
The ARBÖ traffic experts expect the second wave of travel from the early morning until the afternoon on the transit routes in the west and the access roads to the ski areas. Specifically, these are mainly:
- Tauern Motorway (A10), between Hallein and Hüttau, with block handling in the construction area between Golling and Pass Lueg
- Inntal Autobahn (A12), before the exits Kufstein/South, Wiesing/Zillertal, Haiming/Ötztal and Imst/Pitztal as well as in the greater Innsbruck area
- Brenner Autobahn (A13), before the toll station Schönberg and the construction site before the Lueg bridge
- Arlberg Expressway (S16), between Bludenz and the Arlberg tunnel
- Zillertal Road (B169), along the entire route with block handling before the Brettfall tunnel
- Eiberg Road (B173), along the entire route
- Fern Pass Road (B179), along the entire route
- Pinzgau Road (B311), between Bischofshofen and Lend as well as Saalfelden and Lofer, in sections.
