Travel: ADAC warns of increased congestion at weekends
The ADAC has issued a warning about increased traffic congestion across Germany over the weekend due to summer holidays in nearly all federal states. With schools closed in most regions, there is expected to be heavy travel on highways, particularly towards the south, north, and east coast. The A1, A7, and A95 highways are highlighted as areas of concern. Additionally, around 1,000 construction sites and several road closures are exacerbating the situation. The ADAC also warns of traffic issues abroad, including in Austria, the Netherlands, and other neighboring countries. Travelers returning home may face delays at border crossings, especially at specific locations like Suben, Walserberg, and Frankfurt/Oder. The ADAC recommends avoiding peak travel times on Friday afternoon, Saturday morning, and Sunday afternoon.

Der ADAC warnt vor starken Staus am Wochenende zum Beginn der Ferien in Baden-Württemberg und Bayern, insbesondere zwischen Freitagabend und Samstagmittag. Der Verkehr wird durch Ferienreisende, Pendler und Tagesausflügler stark belastet, besonders auf Strecken in Richtung Alpen, Küsten und Seen. Bundesweit führen rund 1000 Baustellen und Veranstaltungen wie das Wacken Open Air und der Hamburger Sommerdom zu erhöhtem Verkehrsandrang. Im Ausland sind Staus auf österreichischen Autobahnen wie der Brenner- und Tauernautobahn sowie in der Schweiz auf der Gotthardroute zu erwarten. In Deutschland sind Abschnitte der A7, A8, A93 und der B2/B23 betroffen, wobei Abfahrtssperren erwartet werden. Die Bahnstrecke zwischen Regensburg und Passau ist gesperrt, was auch den Zugverkehr beeinträchtigt.
