With the end of the holidays, the autobahns in Bavaria are also filling up.

The ADAC traffic jam forecast now announces a risk of traffic jams for many travel routes in the Free State.

Munich – This coming weekend, from Friday, January 6th to Sunday, January 8th, a number of congestion boosters will once again meet.

Not only is Friday a public holiday in Bavaria (Three Kings), the holidays also end in eight federal states.

Then there are the day trippers and skiers.

The ADAC has now issued a forecast for the weekend regarding the risk of traffic jams.

Danger of traffic jams in Bavaria: end of vacation, holiday, day trippers - full streets?

According to this, the ADAC expects “sometimes very lively return travel” for the first weekend in January.

The holidays are a big factor: In addition to Bavaria, they also end in Baden-Württemberg, Bremen, Hamburg, Lower Saxony, North Rhine-Westphalia, Saxony-Anhalt and Schleswig-Holstein as well as in the Netherlands and Austria.

According to the ADAC, there will probably be the most traffic jams on Saturday, January 7th and Sunday.

The bed change in the winter sports centers is particularly noticeable on Saturday.

"Overall, however, ski vacationer traffic in the direction of the Alpine countries is likely to be somewhat lower this winter season than in the pre-Corona times." This is simply because ski vacations have become significantly more expensive, also because ski resorts have raised their prices during the energy crisis.

ADAC: The motorways that are particularly prone to congestion on the last holiday weekend

In both directions, these motorways in Bavaria are particularly at risk of congestion, writes the ADAC:

• A3:

   Passau - Nuremberg - Frankfurt

• A6:

   Heilbronn – Nuremberg

• A7: 

  Füssen/Reutte – Würzburg and Hanover – Hamburg

• A8: 

  Karlsruhe - Stuttgart - Munich - Salzburg

• A9:

   Munich – Nuremberg – Berlin

• A93:

   Kufstein – Inntal triangle

• A95/B 2:

   Munich – Garmisch-Partenkirchen

• A99:

   Munich bypass

Traffic jams abroad and at border crossings

Overall, however, the ADAC expects a calmer traffic jam situation than is usually the case for the first weekend in January - also abroad.

However, the typical travel routes such as the Brenner motorway and the Tyrolean, Salzburg and Vorarlberg federal roads in Austria are particularly affected by traffic jams.

According to the traffic jam forecast, things will also be a little quieter than usual at the border crossings.

According to the ADAC, "waiting times should be planned for when entering Germany, especially at the borders with Austria, especially at Suben, Walserberg and Kiefersfelden".

Longer than 30 to 45 minutes would not come together.
