ÖAMTC warns: End of holidays and numerous events cause traffic jam weekend

The end of the holiday season in Eastern Austria, parts of the Netherlands, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic will once again lead to significant traffic jams and delays on the Austrian south-north and east-west routes, warns the ÖAMTC in a press release on Wednesday.

Waiting times will occur at the borders to Germany as well as before the Karawanken Tunnel, at Spielfeld and Nickelsdorf towards Austria. Various major events will cause regional difficulties with arrivals and departures. The Tauern Motorway (A10) will once again be the most congested route, especially before tunnels and toll stations. There will also be heavy traffic on the Brenner Motorway (A13), the Pyhrn Motorway (A9), and the West Motorway (A1).

Events further increase traffic on Sunday

On Sunday (31.8.), several events will also take place in Austria. Due to the Ötztal Cycle Marathon, there will be stoppages on the following routes: Sölden - Oetz - Kühtai - Kematen - Völs - Innsbruck - Sonnenburgerhof - Schönberg - Matrei am Brenner - Steinach am Brenner - Gries am Brenner - Brenner - Sterzing - Jaufen Pass - St. Leonhard in Passeier - Timmelsjoch - Sölden.

Due to the Ironman Zell am See-Kaprun, among others, the Pinzgauer Straße (B311) between Bruck and Lend and the Hochkönig Straße (B164) between Dienten and Saalfelden will be temporarily impassable.

On Sunday, numerous connections around Lake Wörthersee will also be closed due to "Kärnten Läuft" - for example, the Velden-Ost motorway junction of the South Motorway (A2). But there will also be numerous detours between Klagenfurt and Velden.

Tulln Garden Fair over several days

From August 28 to September 1, 2025, the Tulln Garden Fair will also take place at the exhibition grounds in Tulln. Delays are to be expected on the access and exit routes - such as Tullner Straße (B19).
