Traffic at peak times
Drivers were stuck in traffic jams in Linz for almost two days
Traffic jams greet you every day: whether nerve-wracking, tiring or simply annoying - the traffic chaos is a daily game of patience for many in and around Linz. But how bad is it really in the Upper Austrian capital compared to other cities? A look at the data from TomTom is surprising.
For commuters and Linzers themselves, the morning traffic jam has long since become a ritual - annoying, tiring and, above all, time-consuming. The subjective impression may lead us to believe that we have a monopoly on traffic jams, but a look at the facts - provided by navigation giant TomTom - paints a somewhat different picture.
Only Innsbruck has fewer traffic jams
In 2024, drivers in Linz spent a total of one day and 20 hours in traffic jams. Of course, the daily "bumper to bumper" roll is annoying, but compared to other Austrian cities, it's almost child's play. Because apart from Innsbruck (30 hours), you need a much thicker set of nerves in Salzburg (78 hours) and Graz (86 hours) than here. Not to mention the Viennese - they were bumper to bumper for almost four days (95 hours). Incidentally, the worst traffic jam was on October 1 - there was a bomb threat at Linz Central Station.
