# Closure of the Danube cycle path R1 on the south side

Closure of the Danube cycle path R1 int the Pyburger Au area
============================================================

A section of the **Danube Cycle Path R1** on the south side of the Danube – in the Pyburger Au area – will be closed from **25 August 2025 until 13 April 2028 due to work to reinforce the piers of the Mauthausen Danube Bridge**.

The north side of the Danube is only affected by a short push section of approx. 150 m.

**Coming from Enns (Pyburg ferry exit) towards Lower Austria:**
Follow the signposted diversion on site, which will ensure unhindered continuation to Lower Austria.

**Coming from Lower Austria towards Enns:**
Follow the signposted diversion on site to the Pyburg ferry. If you wish to cross the Danube via the Mauthausen Danube Bridge, please note the turn-off at the diversion towards the ferry.

**Important information:**

- The Mauthausen Danube Bridge is open to traffic at all times, so it is possible to cross from the south to the north side of the Danube.
- The south side access to the Enns-Pyburg-Mauthausen ferry on the R1 is open.
