Temporary border checks at the Brenner Pass
In July and September Austria is planning to introduce temporary border controls at selected crossings on the border with Germany and Italy.
The measures were scheduled much earlier and are intended to improve security during the Austrian presidency of the Council of the EU.
The border controls will take place between 9 and 13 July and again between 17 and 21 September.
