Daily Closures

As part of the construction of the Pulpit Gallery, daily closures will be necessary for rock removal work following the freeze-thaw cycle in the spring and for road construction as well as the stabilization of a rock outcrop near the new gallery in the fall, as follows:

• 31.08.2026 bis 27.11.2026: Daily closures Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.
   

During the daily closures, the following details must be observed:

• The closures apply from Pfunds/Kajetan Bridge (B 184 Engadiner Straße junction) to Nauders/B 185 Martinsbrucker Straße junction; however, access to Nauders via the B 180 Reschenstraße remains unrestricted.
• Traffic will be diverted—with the exception of vehicles with trailers longer than 6.5 meters and buses longer than 13 meters—via the B 185 Martinsbrucker Straße, the H 27 Engadiner Straße (Swiss territory), and the B 184 Engadiner Straße.
• Vehicles that cannot use the B 185 Martinsbrucker Straße due to existing traffic restrictions must take a wide detour around the closure or wait for the designated passage time slots.
• Outside the specified closure times, traffic may proceed through the construction zone in a single lane (traffic light control).
• Swiss Customs has announced that there are no exceptions regarding the heavy vehicle toll for vehicles over 3.5 tons.

Important Information for Cyclists

• Outside the daytime closure
  Outside the specified closure times, cyclists can use the Via Claudia Augusta as usual from Pfunds via Martina, continuing over the Norbertshöhe to Nauders and on to the Reschen Pass.
• During the daytime closures
  Important information regarding the NorbertshöheCycling up the Norbertshöhe is generally permitted during the daytime closures, but it is not recommended.
  During the closure periods, all car traffic diverted from the B180 is routed via the B185 and therefore over the Norbertshöhe. This means that cyclists, especially those travelling uphill, should expect significantly increased traffic.
  
  Cyclists are therefore advised to use the signposted alternative route via the forest road, the “Bierweg” near Altfinstermünz, during the daytime closures.

Permanent Cycling Ban on the B180
Regardless of the daytime closures, there is a permanent ban on bicycles on the B180 Reschenstraße from the Kajetansbrücke/Pfunds to the junction with the Bierweg (access to Altfinstermünz).

The Inn Cycle Path is fully accessible without restrictions during summer 2026.
