The fire brigade then lifted the bus with a special vehicle, after which the journey could be continued. Fortunately, there were no injuries in the accident.

According to wien.ORF.at, the hole was eventually temporarily filled with concrete. The exact cause is still being speculated. One possibility is water erosion, which could have occurred over several weeks. Eventually, the road surface may have given way under the weight of the tour bus.
