The Landeck Tunnel in Austria is located west of Innsbruck and east of St. Anton am Arlberg in Tyrol. It can be reached via the B180 road. It is a single-tube motorway tunnel on the A12 that connects the Upper Inn Valley to South Tyrol via the Reschen Pass. The tunnel is sometimes referred to as the Landeck South Bypass. Its purpose is to reduce traffic in the municipalities of Landeck and Zams in the Tyrolean Oberland. The tunnel connects the Reschenstraße (B180) with the A12 Inntal Motorway. Unlike some other tunnels, the Landeck Tunnel does not require a separate route toll (special toll), as it is not considered a special toll route. However, since it is part of the A12, a vignette is required. In contrast to most tunnels in Austria, the Landeck Tunnel has only one tube with two lanes — one for northbound and one for southbound traffic.
