Brenner Pass to be closed on May 30, 2026 due to demonstration

On May 30, 2026, from 11:00 to 19:00, the A13 (Brenner) motorway, B182 road, and L38 road in Tyrol will be fully closed to through traffic due to a demonstration against traffic congestion. Authorities expect over 32,000 vehicles to be unable to pass. Drivers are advised to avoid travel through Tyrol that weekend. Alternative routes (Gotthard, San Bernardino, Reschen Pass, Felbertauern) may be congested and are not always suitable for motorhomes and caravans. Those who cannot postpone their trip are advised to stop in the region (e.g., Innsbruck or the Po Valley) and continue after restrictions are lifted.
