The Stadionallee in Vienna-Leopoldstadt is set to receive a driving ban for cars and motorcycles between Lusthausstraße and the stadium parking lot. The ÖAMTC criticizes this decision.
From autumn 2026, tram line 18 is to be extended from the current terminus Schlachthausgasse through Stadionallee to Handelskai. In the mentioned section of Stadionallee, a driving ban for cars and motorcycles is to be implemented. Through traffic between Leopoldstadt and Landstraße will have to divert via the Tangente or Praterstern, according to the mobility club in a statement on Tuesday. "For many residents, this means massive time losses and unnecessary additional kilometers, especially since mopeds or vehicles without a vignette are not allowed to divert via the highway," said ÖAMTC traffic expert Matthias Nagler.
