Anyone wanting to cross the Brenner can expect major delays since Saturday morning. Due to two construction sites, traffic only travels in one lane. The travel time from Vipiteno to Gries am Brenner was four hours, and in the south a maximum of two hours.
On Saturday you had to have a lot of patience and good nerves on the Brenner highway. Towards the north there was sometimes a loss of time of about four hours; There was sometimes a traffic jam in the Wipptal, especially from the Obernberg Bridge to Matrei am Brenner.
“There is no end in sight, but thank God the situation has eased somewhat since the truck driving ban, which has been in force since 3 p.m.,” the director told the “Tiroler Krone”.
The reason for the traffic jam is two construction sites, meaning that parts of the route can only be used in one lane in both directions. Renovation work is taking place at the Lueg Bridge and there is also a construction site at the border tunnel at the Brenner Pass.
