\n
From January 2026, traffic restrictions for heavy goods vehicles over 7.5 tonnes GVW on the Brenner corridor will apply to both Austria and Italy. These restrictions are closely linked and result from coordinated measures on both sides of the border due to the limited capacity of road infrastructure along one of Central Europe\u2019s key transport corridors.<\/div>\n<\/h1>\n

Austria – Restrictions on the A12, A13, and A14<\/h2>\n

Austrian restrictions affect key transit routes in Tyrol and are related to infrastructure work on the A13 Brenner motorway (Lueg Bridge).<\/p>\n

The ban applies to:<\/b>
\n\u27a1\ufe0f 1. A12 Inntal, A13 Brenner, and A14 Rheintal\/Walgau, when the purpose of travel is to reach the national border towards Italy – on the section from the N\u00f6\u00dflach junction to the Brenner Nord junction:
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturdays, 10 January – 14 March 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturday, 28 March 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturdays, 23 May – 6 June 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturdays, 27 June – 26 September 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Selected weekdays: 2 April (Thursday), 13 May (Wednesday), 22 May (Friday), 3 June (Wednesday), 2 October (Friday) \u2192 07:00 \u2013 22:00<\/p>\n

\u27a1\ufe0f 2. A13 Brenner between the Brenner Nord and N\u00f6\u00dflach junctions towards Innsbruck:
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturdays, 10 January – 14 March 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Saturdays, 4 July – 29 August 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Friday, 10 April 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 22:00<\/p>\n

The restrictions apply to all heavy goods vehicles and vehicle combinations over 7.5 tonnes GVW, except for transports covered by statutory exemptions (e.g., perishable goods, emergency transports, combined transport).<\/p>\n

Italy – Restrictions on the A22 Brenner<\/h2>\n

At the same time, Italian truck restrictions apply on the A22 Brenner motorway in the Autonomous Province of Bolzano (South Tyrol).<\/p>\n

Bans for vehicles over 7.5 tonnes GVW traveling northbound, from Vipiteno (Sterzing) towards the Austrian border (Brenner), are in force:
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Every Saturday from 10 January – 14 March 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 15:00
\n\u25aa\ufe0f Friday, 10 April 2026 \u2192 07:00 – 22:00<\/p>\n

Trucks already on the A22 when the ban comes into effect are directed to designated buffer parking areas (SA.DO.BRE parking in Vipiteno or other parking areas indicated by Autobrennero S.p.A. and the Polizia Stradale).<\/p>\n

Interdependence of Austrian and Italian Bans<\/h2>\n

The restrictions in Austria and Italy do not operate independently. The Italian bans on the A22 are a direct consequence of Austrian restrictions on the A13 Brenner. The purpose of introducing the bans on the Italian side is to prevent congestion of trucks at the Austrian border, maintain traffic safety in the Brenner Pass area, and adapt traffic management to the limited capacity on the Austrian side.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
