Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Major road closure in Switzerland

Basically recent very heavy rains have triggered landslides which have washed away a section of the A13 Autobahn on the southern approach to the San Bernadino pass. Its the only major trans alpine road crossing between the Gotthard & the Brenner. Could be a long and slow detour until the road reopens. I would assume the Swiss will try to get some of the road open asap but even so would assume restrictions in place for some time to replace the washed away section as cant see it being an easy or short project to replace the entire section of road.

Copied from another place:

Someone from the Federal Roads Office talked to the press yesterday. 3 to 4 weeks to repair and open half the A13 (San Bernardino tunnel highway). This estimate relies on the assumption of no more storms and repair works can be done safely.

This means traffic at Gotthard tunnel will be miserable for the next month, and probably dangerous. All those caravans being pulled with a tired car engine and stuck for hours in a climb are just a time bomb. Either a simple breakdown or fire. So, quick summary of how to read the signals at Gotthard:

Yellow blinking light: incident in the tunnel, e.g. broken car, so drive carefully.

Red light: DO NOT ENTER THE TUNNEL because fire, accident or big objects on the road.
