Stau-alarm at Pentecost: traffic chaos awaited on the highways!

The Pentecost holidays are just around the corner, and that means one thing for drivers in Germany: lots of traffic on the highways. Autobahn GmbH experts warn of traffic jams, especially on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning when numerous travelers start vacation. Hardly any time of the year attracts as many travelers as this long weekend, especially because the Pentecost holidays will start on Tuesday in Baden-Württemberg and Bavaria. Especially on Whit Monday, June 9th, an increased return travel traffic can be expected.

There are numerous junctions particularly frequented, which are used strongly at peak times. On the A1, for example, the junctions from Lensahn to Neustadt-Pelzerhaken and from Eutin to Scharbeutz are busy. The situation is similar on the A2 and A3, where there can often be delays between the intersections and junctions. The full list of the loaded sections also includes numerous other motorways that were recorded in a table:

In order to get an overview of the current traffic situation, various aids are available to the drivers. Autobahn GmbH operates an interactive dashboard that shows the nationwide and regional traffic situation in real time. Here travelers learn all the important information about traffic jams, construction sites and other traffic disruptions. In addition, it is continuously reacted to disorders, so that measures can be taken quickly in the event of unpredictable problems. This is done by a common operating system that supports and optimizes the traffic centers.

Current traffic reports already show that there are impairments on various highways. For example, there was already an occupied parking lot in the direction of Bielefeld on the A33 and the danger has been signaled on the A8 by vehicles that have been left behind. Drivers should prepare well and consult the information from platforms such as stau.info to avoid unnecessary stress and delays.

The upcoming holidays and the associated travel are simply to expect a certain patience. But if you plan well and have the traffic situation in mind, you can get to your destination without stress. This Pentecost trip could not only ensure a little relaxation, but also bring unforgettable memories.
