The Lermooser Tunnel is a 3168 m long road tunnel in the Alps in Tyrol , Austria .

geography

The tunnel is located northeast of the Fern Pass on the eastern edge of the Lechtal Alps and cuts through the eastern flank of the Grubigstein . Its north portal is immediately west of Lermoos , the south portal west of Biberwier and about 1 km east of the Loisach spring .

Traffic situation

The Lermoos Tunnel, opened in 1984, was built to relieve the villages of Biberwier, Lermoos and Ehrwald from through traffic on the Fernpassstraße (B 179) between Reutte and Imst and Ehrwalder Straße (B 187) towards Garmisch-Partenkirchen . It is one of the links between the German A 7 in the northwest and the Austrian A 12 in the south.

Coming from the Fernpass, the former federal road branches off shortly before the southern tunnel portal and directly after the Weißensee towards Biberwier; At the end of the town there is a junction from the road to Lermoos that leads in the direction of Ehrwald. Today's main route to Lermoos, Ehrwald and Garmisch-Partenkirchen leads through the tunnel and, starting from the north portal, along the B 187, which runs along the northern edge of the Ehrwald basin. In this way, the narrow town throughputs are avoided.
