Just a few days ago there was an accident in Bichl at the Falak railway crossing there.

A barrier apparently lowered due to a technical defect and a truck drove into it.

Tölzer Allgaustraße is located on the northeastern outskirts of the city and connects the B13 leading to Holzkirchen with the Eichmühle area.

The route of the future northern span can already be seen in this area.

Construction work on this bypass is scheduled to begin in autumn 2024.
