The Arlberg Tunnel between Tyrol and Vorarlberg is passable again. Since Friday, 22 November, the tunnel can be used again, bringing the months-long closure to an end.
With the 14-kilometre-long tunnel open to traffic again, your journey time on this route (expressway S16) is reduced by around 30 minutes. This means you no longer need to plan for the detour via the Arlberg Pass.
No further closure of the Arlberg Tunnel is planned in the coming years, as the fundamental renovation of the tunnel was completed on schedule.
