Current closures in the Dachstein Salzkammergut

Closure of the Sophienbrücke in Bad Goisern

The Sophienbrücke is from now on opened for pedestrians and cyclists, closed for cars.

Closure on Forststraße / Marienruhe Hallstatt

Due to tree felling work in the area of Forststraße above the Roman Catholic parish church, roads will be closed from calendar week 11 (9 March 2026). This affects the road to Marienruhe from the cemetery and Forststraße from the crossing with Mühlbach.

The closure is expected to last until the end of the year.

Road closure – Renovation of the "Bäckerbrücke" in Gosau

The "Bäckerbrücke" in the Gosau municipal area is undergoing extensive renovation on behalf of the Province of Upper Austria. Construction work will begin on 3 August 2026 and is expected to be completed by 11 December 2026.
To ensure access during the construction period, a temporary bridge will be erected. Traffic will be channelled via the temporary bridge in a single lane and controlled by traffic lights. 
This may result in waiting times, particularly during peak hours.

We ask all road users for their understanding regarding these necessary measures and urge them to exercise particular caution in the vicinity of the roadworks.

The resurfacing of Seestraße in Hallstatt (from Polreich to the war memorial) will begin on 19 October 2026 and is expected to last until 25 June 2027, with a break in works from 21 December to 11 January. The project is being carried out on behalf of the Province of Upper Austria.
