At the northern portal of the Gotthard road tunnel, vehicles pile up on Saturday morning for 12 kilometers.
The time lost on the way south between Erstfeld and Göschenen in the canton of Uri is more than two hours.
To avoid traffic congestion, the route on the A13 through the San Bernardino tunnel is recommended as an alternative route south.
Snowfall also caused traffic delays in several places in Switzerland on Saturday morning. Many roads in the mountains are covered with snow, for example in Davos and Arosa in Graubünden and in Simplon Pass in Valais.
According to SRF Meteo, so much snow rarely falls in September. In Montana VS there was even a record: 25 centimeters of snow fell there, as the weather service wrote on Twitter.
26 centimeters of snow fell on Davos. Measurements for these two places have been available since 1931, the altitude is only measured early in the morning, as they say.
School holidays started on Friday night in several cantons.
Legend:
Two people were injured in this accident in Jenaz (GR) on Saturday morning.
