One rola train per hour on the Brenner axis
Austria‘s extended sectorial traffic ban came into effect at the beginning of 2020, introducing further restrictions for truck traffic in the Austrian state of Tyrol. The transit trucks affected by the ban can now cross the Brenner Pass only by train.
The Austrian railways ÖBB made preparations well in advance to meet increased demand for rolling motorway services. Specifically, ÖBB have been offering such services for 250,000 trucks per year on the Brenner Pass since the beginning of 2020 and plan to extend these capacities to 400,000 trucks per annum over the course of this year.
When implemented, the total extension of this service will run one rola train per hour in each direction on the Brenner axis. (ben)
