Watch out for misleading satnav directions: the lorry checkpoint on the A13 in Austria is closed
Since 1 January 2025, one lane is open to traffic in each direction on the Lueg Bridge. As a result, the lorry checkpoint at Brenner-Nord in the northern direction has been closed.
The only exception has been made for vehicles using the Rollende Landstraße (RoLa), an intermodal transport system in which lorries are transported by rail. All other lorries are required to continue using the A13 motorway.
❗IMPORTANT: Satnav systems may incorrectly indicate that lorries should pass through the checkpoint. Remember! All trucks must change to the inside lane before passing the Luegbrücke bridge. For this reason ASFINAG recommends that all HGV drivers should make this lane change immediately after passing the Brenner border tunnel in a northerly direction.
