While some start their vacation, others are already returning. At the weekend it will probably be quite crowded on Germany’s roads.

travelers in Germany is facing one of the worst traffic jam weekends of the holiday season. While Bavaria and Baden-Württemberg are starting the summer holidays and the second wave is beginning in some federal states and the Netherlands, many holidaymakers from North Rhine-Westphalia and parts of Scandinavia are already on their way home, the ADAC explained. The traffic club expects the most traffic on the motorways on Friday afternoon, Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon.

The ADAC expects particularly heavy loads on the long-distance roads to the North and Baltic Seas, the Autobahn 1 (Bremen – Lübeck), the A3 (Frankfurt – Passau), the A5 (Hattenbacher Dreieck – Basel), the A6 (Mannheim – Nuremberg), the A7 from Hamburg to Flensburg and from Hamburg to Füssen/Reutte.

In addition, it will probably be full on the A8 from Karlsruhe to Salzburg, the A9 (Halle/Leipzig – Munich), the A19 (Dreieck Wittstock – Rostock), A24 (Berlin – Hamburg), A45 (Gießen – Dortmund), A61 (Ludwigshafen – Mönchengladbach), A81 (Stuttgart – Singen), A93 (Inntaldreieck – Kufstein), A95 and on the B2 (Munich – Garmisch-Partenkirchen) as well as on the A99 (Munich bypass).

The ADAC is also forecasting increasing traffic jams in neighboring countries – including on the homebound lanes. Traffic on the Tauern, Fernpass, Inntal, Brenner and Gotthard routes as well as on trunk roads to and from the Italian, French and Croatian coasts will repeatedly come to a standstill in sections. But also on the long-distance roads in the direction of Scandinavia and back from there you need “a big cushion of time”.
