The car clubs are already assuming that there will be a lot of traffic throughout Germany on Wednesday afternoon until the evening hours.

On Thursday, also known as Father’s Day in some places, there should only be “moderate traffic” on the trunk roads, according to the ACE.
In France calculates the information service smart one among other things, on the A10 motorway between the greater Paris area and Bordeaux with traffic jams. There will also be a lot going on on the routes from Lyon towards the Mediterranean coast on Wednesday and Thursday.
Friday is more travel-friendly, at least on the German autobahns. According to the ADAC, there are currently more than 1,000 construction sites, but there is always a chance of losing time.
This also applies to a greater extent on Saturday, when a higher volume of travel is expected again. The clubs expect another peak in terms of traffic jams in the course of the return journey on the motorways on Sunday afternoon. When the weather is nice, there are also many day trippers on the secondary routes.
