(ANSA) - BOLZANO/BOZEN - ''At the Brenner we have reached the limit of tolerance''. Tyrol's governor Guenther Platter sounds alarm on the local daily Tiroler Tageszeitung. In the first nine months of 2017, 11.1 million tonnes crossed the Italian-Austrian pass, that is up 6.44% (526,000 tir) compared to the same period of 2016. Traffic of light vehicles also increased by 4,74% (+417,000 cars). Meanwhile, Bavaria has harshly criticised the ''numerus clausus'' of 250 tonnes per hour which was enforced yesterday by Tyrol after a 24-hours-a-day ban on vehicles due to Austria's national holiday. A 30 km long queue of vehicles has formed in Germany. Bavaria's Interior Minister Joachim Hermann spoke of an ''unacceptable'' and ''contrary to European law'' measure. ''In absence of this ban, traffic would have exceeded the upper limit of tolerance in Innsbruck, with long queues, reaching Woergel or even Kufstein'', Platter replied.(ANSA).
