Whitsun travelers will need nerves of steel this weekend. Long traffic jams were already forming on the A10 (Tauernautobahn) early on Saturday. But it got even worse: at around 10:30 a.m., climate activists also hijacked the highway in Salzburg. The police have since removed the climate stickers from the road, but the traffic jam chaos continues.

A dozen climate stickers calmly marched onto the A10 motorway just before Hallein. The activists didn't have much to say, but they could hear all the more from the annoyed drivers.

"What you're doing is cruelty to animals"
In addition to a loud honking concert, drivers also got out of their cars and tried to persuade the activists to move aside. "This is cruelty to animals, what you're doing," raged one driver, who was in a hurry to get out of the scorching heat with his dog. 

Police took the activists off the road
A few drivers even wanted to drag the activists off the road themselves. The police were at least able to defuse the situation a little and waiting cars were diverted away. The police had to wait for clearance to disperse the demonstration and remove the activists from the road. The action was finally broken up after just under an hour.

Alternate routes are also congested 
There are again road closures along the Tauernautobahn. This does not apply to incoming and outgoing traffic with destinations in the surrounding radius. And yet the alternative routes were congested again on Saturday. On the Gollinger Bahnhofsstraße, the holidaymakers' cars were jammed just like the day before.
