Stau-chaos threatens! Start Pentecost holidays - drivers pay attention!

Sauldorf, Deutschland - On June 6, 2025, the last school day before the Pentecost holidays in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria marks. These upcoming two weeks of vacation lead to a strong increase in traffic on the highways in southern Germany, as the ADAC reports. Last year the Pentecost Friday was the most steady day of the year, and this year too there are the chances that the situation will be repeated.

on the long -distance streets can be expected to overload vacation trips and excursion traffic. The Alps, the low mountain ranges and the North and Baltic Sea are particularly popular. Many day trippers also attract the local recreation areas around the big cities. Experts expect that strong traffic loads will occur in particular on Friday afternoon and Whit Monday from the early afternoon.

traffic jam forecast and traffic measures

The traffic jams also see Saturday morning in the south and Tuesday, June 10th, as heavily burdened, comparatively quieter during the Pentecost Sunday. The present data show that Friday before Pentecost and the subsequent Tuesday traditionally represent the most stagfar. According to ADAC, the particularly damaged motorways include the A1, A3, A5, A7 and A8. There is currently also a full closure on the A42 between Bottrop-Süd and Kreuz Essen-Nord until June 16.

construction sites and bottlenecks abroad, such as on the burner highway in Austria or on the Reschenpass with mutual one -way traffic, also strain traffic. In the Czech Republic, construction work on the D8 between Dresden and Prague must be observed, and in Switzerland there are night closures in the Gotthard tunnel. Increased entry controls at German borders since the beginning of May could also lead to delays at the transitions.
