Accident with Four Trucks in S1 Tunnel Vösendorf

On September 26, 2025, the Volunteer Fire Department Vösendorf was alerted to a traffic accident with an unclear situation in the S1 Tunnel Vösendorf. Upon arrival at the scene, it was found to be a serious rear-end collision involving four semi-trailer trucks. One initially trapped person was able to free themselves from their vehicle.

Heavy Smoke Development Detected

During further investigation, heavy smoke development was detected. After reporting back to the area alarm center, the operation was upgraded to "large vehicle fire" due to the fire incident, and according to the tunnel alarm plan, the volunteer fire departments of Brunn am Gebirge, Perchtoldsdorf, and Wiener Neudorf were alerted. Additionally, the Volunteer Fire Department Mödling was called in with the heavy crane vehicle.

Thanks to the rapid intervention, the fire was extinguished in its early stages, preventing it from spreading. Subsequently, the recovery of the interlocked vehicles followed. With the crane vehicle from the Mödling fire department and a tow truck for trucks from the Vienna professional fire department, the semi-trailer trucks were recovered from the tunnel in cooperation with all fire departments.

Tunnel Was Closed Towards Schwechat During Operation

To ensure local fire protection, the Perchtoldsdorf fire department took over staffing the Vösendorf fire station during the operation.

The tunnel was closed towards Schwechat for the entire duration of the operation. After about six hours, the fire departments were able to return and restore operational readiness.
