How do you live with Ljubljana related traffic?

1. Laughing in Hindi……

2. The traffic is slow because nobody actually want to go to Ljubljana so we take our time to go there.

   Once we are leaving though we drive double the speed limit to get out as fast as possible.

3. We simply don’t go to Ljubljana. Especially Southern Ring. I recommend going on local roads.

4. Check [promet.si](https://promet.si) for traffic info to avoid heavy traffic.

   Also it seems that there was an accident on Ljubljana ring today.

5. Right now there is a lot of road construction around Ljubljana. But regardless its only like this in morning and afternoon rush hours.

6. yep… trafic is f up… that is why you dont go to ljubljana from 5am-9am and from 3pm-7pm

   EDIT***** JA ZAJEBAL SEM NI 13 PM AMPAK 3 PM sem popravil

   

7. Bike

8. Transit is the cause of traffic for us living in the area and not vice versa. Therefore we should be complaining about you.

10. Traffic is slow, because unlike other countries, here we have actual traffic experts. And the experts say that we shouldn’t have more lanes or roads for that matter, because once you get on the exit it all narrows down to 1 lane anyway. So it’s better to wait in massive traffice.

    I bet you don’t have such amazing experts in normal countries now, do you?

11. I actually have to go around Ljubljana on the ring road twice per day, it’s a nightmare.

12. Oh Godforbid about living in Ljubljana

    Recommendation – you can try going down country roads instead of the highway – the ride is somewhat faster, far more scenic and you actually move instead of just waiting. I’d advise using either [promet.si](https://promet.si) or Google Maps to see where there’s a traffic jam and how to avoid it

    Cheers

13. …asks a guy who is a part of the problem…

14. Prevec avtov je.

15. Have you never been to a city before? How is this different than Zagreb, Budapest or any other city in the region?

16. You Op.. you are the problem

    “hey just passing through on my way to croatia, WHY IS THERE SO MUCH TRAFFIC” Well I wonder why

    Living in Ljubljana is actually quite great when people who DON’T live here aren’t driving here.

17. i walk

18. Since I couldn’t edit and can’t reply to everyone: I’m Croatian. Going Zagreb – Varaždin, or Zagreb – Karlovac in the same time slots, on the highway was definitely not the same experience as this. Maybe, and only maybe if you count Slavonska and the toll gates as the part of the highway and not the highway itself. I’m just asking how do you deal with it, since it looks like the highway in itself is widely undercapacitated, especially for truck transit.

    Also, to counteract the comments – there weren’t many foreign registrations today, if you dismiss the trucks. When we passed Ljubljana on Monday, same situation happened since we were going through the southern part of the highway – I was just curious.

    The problem might be that for me at least, there isn’t clear delineation of what’s supposed to be highway and what’s just the city’s fast road (brza cesta? zaobilaznica?), since we have toll gates.

    Thank you for the helpful comments though, we’ll check promet.si next time.

19. I love traffic jams. I love losing my sanity day by day while I wait in a long line for half an hour just, so I can move 2cm forward. I can’t wait to do this tomorrow! And the day after that too!

20. Don’t travel in rush hour.

    Also you are a part of the problem.

21. Becuse on usual workday 30 % of Slovenians is migrating to Ljubljana for work. Years of centralisation and here it is,…
