Pentecost: How to avoid the worst traffic jams to A5 and A8!

Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland - A greatly increased traffic volume on the highways in Germany is expected to come up with the upcoming Pentecost weekend. Jürgen Herbrich, traffic jam expert at ADAC Nordbaden, warns in particular of long traffic jams on the busy routes A5 and A8. The reason for the expected traffic disruptions is in the beginning of Pentecost holidays in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria.

The highest traffic loads can be expected on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning when travel and afternoon traffic collapsed. Travelers should already expect that they have to expect a time loss of 30 to 45 minutes.

traffic jam hotspots

The traffic situation on the traffic jam hotspots will be particularly critical. These include the Walldorf (A5 and A6) motorway junction, the triangle of Karlsruhe and construction sites between Rastatt-Nord and Rastatt-Süd. The A8 near Pforzheim is also likely to be heavily burdened. Travelers from other federal states, such as Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia, are also expected because some of them have free of school until Tuesday, June 10th.

Overall, drivers from almost all federal states will be on the move, which increases the risk of steam in southern Germany. Popular travel destinations are located in the Alps, low mountain ranges, on the North and Baltic Sea and in neighboring countries.

  • peak times for traffic disorders:
  • Friday afternoon, June 6th
  • Saturday morning, June 7th
  • Whit Monday, June 9th (especially in the afternoon)
  • Tuesday, June 10th
  • Pentecost Sunday, June 8th is the best travel day

In addition, travelers must expect waiting times on international routes, such as the burner highway and the Tauern motorway. Rand -like checks have been in use at the German borders since the beginning of May, which can also lead to delays.

preparations for the trip

To make the trip more pleasant, there are some tips from traffic jam experts. So travelers should stay calm and mentally adjust to possible traffic jams. It is advisable to pack podcasts or music for entertainment. For families with children, it is advisable to take games for employment.

An important note concerns the formation of the emergency alleys. This must be formed when the traffic is stored, since it enables the emergency services to access the accident to accident sites. Failure for non -adjustments are at risk of up to 320 euros.

In addition, the ADAC tourism study 2025 shows interesting trends in travel behavior. A stable share of 58 % of Germans plans vacation trips of at least five days. The increase in "much vacationers" that take five or more travel a year has increased from 3 % to 8 %. While more and more Germans are traveling abroad, Germany is also a popular travel destination, which underlines the need for a powerful infrastructure.

The increasing use of the car as a means of transport shows that many travelers stay locally and still want a relaxed journey. The booking of the main vacation is planned four months in advance in 44 % of cases, which enables comprehensive planning and preparation. It remains to be seen how the traffic situation will actually develop in the coming days.
