The reason for the traffic jam between Erstfeld UR and Göschenen UR was traffic congestion, as announced by the Touring Club of Switzerland (TCS) on the short message service X. At around 11.00 a.m., the traffic jam between Wassen and Göschenen in the canton of Uri was only around one kilometer long.
The Federal Roads Office (Astra) had warned of "considerable traffic restrictions and increased congestion" over the Christmas period and the turn of the year. SBB also ran more trains on the main routes and to popular leisure and vacation destinations over the festive period.
