Limited Accessibility on the Reschen Pass Road from September 2024 to December 2026
The Reschen Pass Road (B180) will be only partially accessible
from September 2024 until the end of 2026. The reason for this is the construction of a rockfall protection gallery in the Austrian section between Pfunds and Nauders.
Temporary closures will be necessary to complete this protective structure.
Closures 2026:
April 13 – May 8, 2026: Monday–Friday -> 07:30–12:30 and 13:30–18:00
April 21, 2026: continuous closure from 07:30 to 18:00 due to the Tour of the Alps
August 31 – October 30, 2026: Monday–Thursday -> 07:30–18:00; Friday -> 07:30–14:00
Detour via Switzerland during the Closure of the Reschen Pass Road
During the closure periods, we recommend using the detour via Switzerland. This alternative route runs along the Engadine Road (B184) and the Martinsbruck Road (B185), bypassing the closed section between Pfunds and Nauders. The detour adds just 6.6 kilometers to the usual route. Depending on traffic conditions, the additional travel time is approximately 10 minutes. A detailed map of the route (Pfunds – Nauders) is available on
Google Maps.
Important Information for Specific Vehicle Types:
-
Mobilhomes may use the detour without restrictions. However, if the total weight exceeds 3.5 tons, a fee of 5 euros must be paid at the Swiss customs station in Martina.
-
Caravans and trailers are permitted on the route only if the trailer length does not exceed 6.5 meters.
-
Trucks, vehicles with trailers over 6.5 meters, and buses longer than 13 meters are not allowed on this route and must use large-scale detours.
IMPORTANT:
Changed traffic routing 2025–2026
- Until
November 2026, traffic will be managed in a single lane with traffic-light control.
- From
September to November 2026, there will be a final full closure for finishing construction work and asphalt paving.
