Stau-albaum at Pentecost: Transport chaos expected in Central Germany!

If you use the streets from Dresden on the coming White weekend, you should be prepared for a lot of patience. Autobahn GmbH urgently warns of congestion problems, especially on the important connections A4, A9 and A72. As reported MDR, congestion are primarily expected on the A4 between Hermsdorf-Ost and Rüdersdorf, as well as in the vicinity of Erfurt, Weimar and Jena. Along the Dresden bypass is also expected.

A particularly critical needle is an approximately 20 km long section between Dresden-Altstadt and the triangle Nossen, where a construction site significantly hinders the river. Drivers who want to go to Oberlausitz should be prepared for bottlenecks between Nieder Seifersdorf and Kodersdorf.

Stammfahrfe on the motorways

on the A9, which leads from Berlin to Halle/Leipzig, there are also challenges. The sections between Köselitz and Vockerode as well as between Naumburg and Droyßig are particularly affected. This risk of traffic was updated on June 6, 2025, according to stau.info. In addition, there was a serious accident with three vehicles involved, which led to a full closure between Dessau-Süd and Vockerode.

The A72 around Zwickau is also not spared: here, especially in the areas of loyalty and Reichenbach in the Vogtland, bottlenecks are reported. It is worth considering alternative routes, especially at peak times, where travel traffic is strongest on Friday afternoon and Saturday morning.

vacation traffic and holiday duration

The long Pentecost weekend, which lasts from June 3 to 10, 2025, brings a variety of travelers to the streets. As reports Auto-press, considerable traffic is expected in several federal states due to the start of the holiday. Berlin, Brandenburg, Bremen and Lower Saxony in particular have no school on Tuesdays, which also fueled travel.

Visitors from these regions strive to explore popular travel destinations such as the Alps or North and Baltic Sea. The back travel wave is mainly expected on Whit Monday and the following Tuesday. A little ray of hope: The Pentecost Sunday, June 8th, should go a little more calmly.

The expected mess on the highways is not a news, but is increasingly being increasingly made by construction sites in combination with the increased entry controls at the German borders. These factors provide additional time delays at certain transitions, which one or the other could not have calculated.

In order to avoid stress, it could be advisable to plan the travel times well in order not to get on the traffic on this traffic jam.
