If you are not involved in the raffle, you may have to deal with the current construction sites and the associated impairments.

renovation work on the A23

The renovation work on the A23 has already started and ensure sometimes tedious traffic situations. Dusts and delays occur every day, which can be up to an hour during rush hours and especially on weekends. The section between Knoten Prater and the Handelskai junction is renovated in both directions, such as [OEAMTC.AT] (https://www.oeastc.at/news/wien/staus-auf-a23-wegen-start-der---- 34307314). In order to equalize the passage, the breakdown strip is used as an additional lane, but this means a contradictory traffic routing through the so -called trough lane for oncoming traffic.

Due to the construction work, the bypass ramp is closed in the direction of Handelskai at the Prater knot, but the departure to the city center remains open. For better orientation, a coloring system is installed that helps the drivers to find their way around the construction site. These measures could be a real challenge for some drivers, since dodging via stadiumallee is also not advisable due to other construction sites.

outlook for the coming months

The renovation work is expected to continue until the end of August 2026. After a winter break from October 2025 to March 2026, the junctions knot Prater and Handelskai are examined again. The goal is clear: a safe and sustainable traffic tour for everyone who is traveling every day on this heavily frequented route.
