Thanks to the holiday, many treat themselves to a long weekend.

The ADAC therefore expects numerous traffic jams on Ascension Day.

There should be a handicap here.

Munich - Thursday, May 26, 2022 is Ascension Day and Father's Day.

Because the day always falls on a Thursday, a bridging day weekend follows.

Many people take Friday off and use the four consecutive days for excursions or a short vacation.

In many federal states, the day after Ascension Day is officially no school.

Holiday weekend: ADAC expects numerous traffic jams on Ascension Day

The streets in Germany are correspondingly crowded.

The ADAC expects numerous traffic jams.

The Automobile Club expects significant obstacles, especially on the motorways to and from the coast, in urban areas and in the direction of the Alps.

In addition, there are more than a thousand construction sites, the block handling of trucks in Tyrol and the fact that Corona no longer restricts national travel.

In addition, one-week vacation ends in Saxony-Anhalt and Hamburg.

The ADAC expects the first peak of traffic jams on Wednesday afternoon from around 1:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

The return wave will then reach its peak on Sunday afternoon.

Ascension Day: ADAC sees the greatest risk of traffic jams on the A1 and A9 - highways to the coast at risk

According to the ADAC, the greatest risk of traffic jams in Germany is on trunk roads to and from the coast, on the A1 from Cologne via Bremen and Hamburg to Lübeck, on the A2 from Berlin via Hanover to Dortmund and on the A9 from Munich to Nuremberg.

In Bavaria, too, many long traffic jams threaten around Ascension Day.

According to the traffic experts, the greater Munich area and the A99 motorway ring road should be particularly affected.

In addition to the A9, waiting times are also expected on the A6 between Heilbronn and Nuremberg, on the A8 from Stuttgart via Munich to Salzburg, and on the A95 and federal highway 2 from Munich to Garmisch-Partenkirchen.

Danger of traffic jams on the Inntalautobahn A93: Ascension Day could cause problems

The Inntalautobahn A93 should also cause problems for many drivers around Ascension Day.

The reason: the Austrian state of Tyrol only cleared trucks in blocks at the Kufstein/Kiefersfelden border crossing on Wednesday.

At the same time, a traffic jam up to 34 kilometers long developed in front of the Tyrolean border last year.
