Mountain festival in sight: traffic jam chaos on the A7 and A210 during the autumn holidays!

Saturday, October 18th marks the start of the autumn holidays in Schleswig-Holstein, Hamburg and Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. This has resulted in a sharp increase in travel traffic and is already causing long traffic jams, especially on the A7 near Neumünster and Rendsburg. The traffic situation on the A210 and B76 is also tense, as is the case SHZ reported.

It's not just northern Germans who are being hit hard these days. According to the traffic jam forecast ADAC Autumn travel is at its peak from Friday, October 17th to Sunday, October 19th, also in other federal states. Many federal states are enjoying holidays, and this is reflected in the greatly increased traffic density.

Traffic chaos on the weekend

Around 1,300 construction sites on the motorways in Germany are causing additional problems for drivers. There are also planned full closures on many routes, which could cause even more traffic jams. Welcome to travel chaos! The greater Hamburg, Berlin, Rhine-Ruhr and Munich areas are particularly affected. But the beautiful coastal regions of the North and Baltic Seas are also heavily frequented, such as t online summarizes.

Another reason for the traffic jams are weather-related problems, especially fog. Motorists are advised to drive carefully. It is also pointed out that trips to the Alps should be done with winter tires, as the first snowfalls there should not be long in coming.

Most popular travel destinations

The most popular travel destinations during these autumn holidays are the hiking regions of the Alps, the low mountain ranges and the coastline of the North and Baltic Seas. The ADAC has also provided geographical information about where the risk of traffic jams is highest and where drivers should be particularly warned.

Despite all the challenges, optimism regarding the traffic situation remains high, because the expected traffic jams are unlikely to reach the levels of summer travel, even if unpleasant surprises can always arise. The travel season still seems to be a pleasure for many, considering the number of travelers who hit the road.

Good luck to everyone who will be using the roads during this time and remember: safety always comes first. Happy autumn holidays!
