At Lermoos tunnel
Accident in Tyrol caused hours of road closure
A car driver (38) was injured in a collision with a truck on Friday in the Tyrolean Außerfern and had to be flown to hospital by rescue helicopter. The truck driver was uninjured.
A traffic accident near the Lermooser Tunnel on the busy Fernpass road (B179) left one person injured on Friday morning. The tunnel was closed for several hours as a result.
After a 38-year-old Serbian man had passed through the tunnel in his car, he hit a kerb and touched the side of an oncoming truck. The injured driver was then flown to Innsbruck Hospital by rescue helicopter.
Previously in the oncoming lane
According to the police, the man had previously crossed into the oncoming lane at the northern tunnel portal for unknown reasons and struck a guard rail. The Serbian then initially continued his journey. Both the car and the truck sustained considerable material damage. The truck driver was uninjured.
Closure for hours
The tunnel was closed for several hours. Traffic was diverted to Lermoos, but there were still considerable traffic jams. In addition to the crew of the rescue helicopter, the Lermoos and Biberwier fire departments and the police were deployed.
