Work in progress
B159 remains closed for longer after rockfall
The B159 at Pass Lueg in Salzburg will be closed for some time to come. A rockslide occurred on the road on Tuesday and clearing work is currently still in full swing. On Thursday, the large quantities of wood, rubble and rock are to be removed by helicopter.
The closure of the Salzachtalstraße in the municipality of Golling will continue for several days. "Unfortunately, the critical area above the destroyed safety fence is more massive than expected. The road maintenance team will need helicopter support to remove the loose rock and wood," explains regional geologist Rainer Braunstingl.
Opening this week
However, it is planned that the B159 will be open again this week.
Monika Vogl, District Governor of Tennengau, says: "The road can only be reopened once the danger has been averted. Of course, the current situation is unpleasant, but safety for everyone comes first."
