ARBÖ Warns: Here Are the Traffic Jam Hotspots on the 2nd Advent Weekend 2025 In and Around Vienna

On December 6th, due to the second shopping Saturday in Advent 2025, traffic jams are expected on the access and exit routes to the shopping centers and in the surrounding areas towards Vienna, warns the ARBÖ.

In the greater Vienna area, drivers should be prepared for the first traffic jams from around 9 a.m. Traditionally, Altmannsdorfer Straße heading out of the city will be the first to experience congestion. Shortly thereafter, the first traffic jams will occur on the Southern Motorway (A2) between the Vienna city limits and Wiener Neudorf, the Southeast Tangent (A23), and the Vienna Northern Expressway (S2) between the Prater junction and Hermann-Gebauer-Straße.

In the city center, the longest delays will be recorded on the Gürtel, on the 2-line, as well as on Franz-Josefs-Kai and the Ring. The Inner Mariahilfer Straße will also be closed to traffic this Saturday from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. "The only crossing is possible via Stumpergasse and Kaiserstraße. The shared spaces, loading streets, and residential streets will also be lifted. This means that the driving ban on Saturday also applies to cyclists and e-scooter riders," according to the ARBÖ information service.
