Mudslide again
Zillertal: Rock and debris cause a closure
Another mudslide occurred in Tyrol on Sunday evening. This time the Gerlosstraße in the Zillertal was affected. Rocks and debris thundered onto the road. One lane of the road is now passable. The Hochgallmiggstraße is open to traffic again.
Several landslides and mudslides caused numerous closures and sometimes dicey situations in Tyrol at the weekend. The Gerlosstraße was also affected by a mudslide on Sunday evening. Rocks and debris flew onto the road, which was partially buried.
A single-lane traffic regulation and a road narrowing have been set up. "The clearing of the rock and debris mass and the assessment of the incident site by the responsible person from the Zell am Ziller road maintenance department will take place on Monday," said the police.
"After an assessment by the responsible road maintenance department and the provincial geology department, the affected slope area above the road will be climbed over in the coming weeks and secured by means of a network," says the Tyrolean government.
Hochgallmiggstraße reopened to traffic after assessment
The Hochgallmiggstraße in the municipality of Fliess has been reopened to traffic. The affected district was not accessible via the road until the early afternoon. After the clearing and securing work was completed and the slope was checked by the provincial geologist, the road was reopened to all traffic, according to the province of Tyrol.
The road was closed on Sunday afternoon following a rockfall and landslide. It was possible to supply the population via a forest road.
The road was already closed in winter after several rockfalls. At that time, the population was supplied with food by the Austrian Armed Forces via the airlift.
