Tirol increases the number of HGV traffic restrictions
According to the new calendar approved by the Tyrolean state government for the first half of 2023, there are 24 days when the number of lorries allowed to pass the German-Austrian border per hour will be limited. That is 3 more days than in the same period of 2022.
On these days, the police will slow down HGV traffic at a specially created checkpoint on the A12 in the direction of Innsbruck near Kufstein Nord, starting from 5 AM and, if necessary, bring it to a standstill so that only around 300 trucks from Germany are allowed to travel along the A12 per hour.
