Stauhölle on Pentecost weekend: drivers and vacationers suffer!

drivers in Munich should prepare for tough driving this coming weekend. According to the current reports of Radio Hochstift, the streets in southern Germany are heavily overloaded, since the Pentecost holidays are in full swing. The high temperatures between 30 and 35 degrees not only make the trip a test of patience, but also demand a good hand in planning to escape the large traffic jam. The streets towards the south and the Baltic Sea are particularly affected, because many have opened up on vacation.

The ADAC warns of considerable travel and recommends packing enough water and light snacks for the trip. "Especially at these high temperatures, it is important not to adjust the air conditioning too cold to avert circulatory problems," said the traffic expert. There are also valuable tips for families with children: shady places for breaks are important, and the little ones in the back seat should be protected with sunscreen.

Tortuous Pentecost weekend

Traditionally, Pentecost is one of the most busy travel weekends in Germany. As reported by RBB24, traffic jams can be expected not only on the motorways around Munich, but also in other parts of the country, in particular on the A10, A11 and A12. Delays are particularly inevitable on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning. In addition, construction sites could also slow down traffic, for example on the A10 between Potsdam and Ferch.

Deutsche Bahn also reports a high booking situation, especially between large metropolises. The main travel days are Friday and Whit Monday, whereby rail travelers are urgently advised to reserve the seat. There are some restrictions on the long -distance trains during this period: Between June 6th and July 4th there will be no stop at the Zoological Garden and Ostbahnhof station, since renovation work is due.

construction sites and delays

The numerous construction sites on the German motorways play a major role in traffic chaos. With around 1,100 construction sites nationwide, it is almost essential that there are disturbances in the flow of traffic. Due to full closures, the Elbe tunnel in Hamburg will present the travelers with challenges. It is therefore advisable to put longer journeys in the cooler morning and evening hours to avoid stress and heat.

For drivers who have to go to the street despite the difficulties, some precautions in the planning are essential. It is important to check the travel route in advance and, if necessary, look for alternatives. If you take all factors into account, nothing stands in the way of a relaxing weekend and a nice time in nature.
