ACE, ADAC See Quiet Weekend on German Autobahns, Flag Construction and Alpine Corridors for Delays

Localized slowdowns are likely where nearly 900 work sites intersect with lingering holiday flows on Alpine corridors.

Angesichts frühlingshafter Temperaturen rechnet der ADAC für das kommende Wochenende mit etwas mehr Verkehr auf den deutschen Straßen. Insbesondere in Richtung der Alpen und in die Naherholungsgebiete sei mit verstärktem Ausflugsverkehr zu rechnen.

Overview

  • For March 13–15, ACE forecasts generally few traffic jams nationwide, with the main pressure points at Friday’s evening commute, Saturday as the primary travel day, and late Sunday returns.
  • ADAC reports around 900 active autobahn construction sites, up from 830 the previous week, and warns that full closures on stretches of the A2, A7 and A9 could extend travel times.
  • With Hamburg’s school holidays ending Friday, traffic in and around the city may be busier, and short return delays are most likely on Sunday afternoon.
  • ADAC highlights Austria’s West-, Tauern-, Inntal-, Brenner- and Rheintalautobahnen plus the Fernpass route and Arlberg Schnellstraße as congestion risks, noting ongoing Brenner Luegbrücke works; in Switzerland the Gotthard and San Bernardino routes and access roads to ski areas remain sensitive.
  • German border checks continue as spot controls that can still cause waits at Suben (A3), Walserberg (A8) and Kiefersfelden (A93), and drivers can consult ADAC and Austria’s Asfinag for real-time travel times and updates.
