Traffic chaos escalates

Holidaymakers at loggerheads with local residents and the police

Nerves are on edge in the traffic jam chaos around the Tauernautobahn (A10)! Protests are forming in the Salzburg communities and the state is tightening controls. 

Cross-country, on narrow municipal roads, right through the town centers - or right across cycle paths and footpaths! Holidaymakers choose the most adventurous routes in their cars to escape the traffic jams around the tunnel construction sites on the Tauernautobahn. The situation has escalated in many places over the past few days.
