Four kilometers of traffic jam
Flooding on the A14 after heavy rain in Vorarlberg
Heavy rain caused flooding on the Rheintalautobahn (A14) at the Dornbirn-Nord junction on Thursday afternoon.
On Thursday, heavy rain fell locally in Vorarlberg in short sections and at intervals. At Dornbirn-Nord, they were so heavy that the drainage shafts on the highway were overwhelmed or blocked by the volume of water.
According to the Dornbirn highway police, the highway was not closed at any time, but at times only one lane of the road in the direction of Tyrol was usable. There was slow-moving traffic and traffic jams, which, according to the ÖAMTC traffic club, were up to four kilometers long.
Emergency crews were working to clear the manholes. The low-lying Dornbirn-Nord junction has been flooded several times in the past during exceptionally heavy rainfall or flooding events, most recently in August 2022 and May 2019.
