Please note the driving ban on transit traffic in Salzburg and Tyrol. Experts at the ARBÖ Information Service Center can provide information. Be prepared for possible traffic jams by filling up your gas tank or fully charging your electric vehicle, having plenty of non-alcoholic drinks, light meals such as fruits and vegetables, and distracting passengers. The bottom line: keep a cool head and be patient, even in heavy traffic. It is strongly recommended not to rush to make up for “lost time”. Better late than never.
