According to ÖAMTC Travel Monitoring 2025, the travel enthusiasm of Austrians remains high despite ongoing inflation, with Italy and Croatia being among the most popular holiday destinations. "Therefore, we expect an above-average high volume of traffic," say the ÖAMTC mobility information. The rush on Austria's roads is expected to start as early as Thursday.

The first delays in Pentecost traffic are anticipated by ÖAMTC traffic experts on Thursday evening (June 5) and Friday (June 6) along the transit routes heading south.

Tauern Motorway Again at the Top of the Traffic Jam Rankings

The main congestion point will again be the tunnel construction site on the Tauern Motorway (A10) between Golling and Werfen. "On Saturday, the longest traffic jams will occur on the Tauern Motorway," says ÖAMTC traffic advisor Herbert Thaler from years of experience. "Delays of several hours in Pentecost traffic are unfortunately commonplace. The fact that the unpleasant construction site will finally be cleared by the end of June at least allows summer vacationers to breathe a sigh of relief," Thaler sees a light at the end of the (construction) tunnel.

But the traffic axes at the Suben border crossing (Upper Austria)-A8-A1-Linz - Knoten Steinhäusl-A21-Knoten Vösendorf-S1-A4-direction Nickelsdorf as well as from Linz to Graz and Spielfeld via the Pyhrn Motorway (A9) will also be overloaded.

ÖAMTC Traffic Advisor Herbert Thaler Assists on Tauern Motorway

ÖAMTC traffic advisor Herbert Thaler will be primarily on the Tauern Motorway from early Saturday to continuously report on the current traffic situation. On his motorcycle, he can also quickly reach and repair broken-down vehicles. "I want to remind everyone of the A-10 exit bans that apply continuously in Salzburg. The validity period of the Tyrolean transit bans varies by district," informs Herbert Thaler in conclusion.
