A traffic accident involving several vehicles involved occurred on Corpus Christi day on the A2 south motorway in the Baden district. Several people were injured. The highway had to be completely blocked in the accident section on the south-facing lane.
KOTTINGBRUNN. The accident occurred around 10.45 a.m. shortly before the Kottingbrunn departure in the southbound direction. A large contingent of emergency personnel was deployed. The Baden-Leesdorf volunteer fire department and the FF Tribuswinkel were alerted to a traffic accident involving a trapped person. Fortunately, however, no one was trapped in the accident vehicles. Several rescue teams and emergency doctors were required to take care of the injured vehicle occupants and then to transport them to hospitals. In addition to the emergency medical vehicle from the Baden Red Cross, the Martin 5 emergency helicopter was also used. According to initial information, a total of 7 people were injured in the accident.
The fire brigade emergency services supported the rescue teams and had to tie up expired equipment. Only after all the injured had been removed and the accident vehicles released by the motorway police could the cleaning up or recovery of the vehicles begin. The first lanes could only be released after over an hour. ASFiNAG employees and a private specialist company cleaned the road. The fire department recovered three accident vehicles that were no longer ready to drive. A kilometer-long backwater formed in the direction of travel south.
