Chaos at the Brenner.
Austria asks that the anti-Covid buffer be carried out 48 hours before crossing the border and on the A22, the Brenner motorway, a 40 km Tir queue towards Bressanone forms, where the temperature is 10 degrees below zero.
Tilt traffic also at the Resia pass and at the San Candido-Prato alla Drava pass.
In this way, test stations are set up to carry out tests and early checks already in the Verona-Affi area.
The president of Trentino, Maurizio Fugatti, asks the new Minister of Transport, Enrico Giovannini, for an extraordinary intervention by the Government: "This unilateral block risks having significant repercussions in economic and environmental terms".
In an interlocution with Fugatti, Minister Giovannini said that in order to minimize inconvenience, in agreement with the ministries of Defense and the Interior, additional stations will be set up during the day to carry out the tests.
For journeys whose destination is in Germany or must be reached via Germany, at the entrance to Tyrol, not only at the Brenner Pass, but also at the Resia pass and the San Candido-Prato alla Drava pass, you need a negative Pcr or antigenic carried out in the previous 48 hours.
For this reason, test stations have been set up.
To avoid situations of traffic congestion, checks are carried out along the A22 Autostrada del Brennero in Verona and Affi.
In the absence of a certificate, the vehicles are diverted to the A4, the A23 to enter Austria through the Tarvisio pass, informs the traffic center of the Province of Bolzano.
