After Ischgl and St. Anton, Kitzbühel also decreed a mask requirement for heavily frequented public. It applies from tomorrow, Friday.
In downtown Kitzbühel, from tomorrow, Friday, until January 23, FFP2 masks will be mandatory outdoors. This applies to heavily frequented locations from 10 a.m. to 3 a.m. the following day, the state of Tyrol announced on Thursday evening. In the Kitzbühel district – where the Hahnenkamm races with 1000 spectators will take place next weekend in the Gamsstadt – the seven-day incidence was 3410.8.
Specifically, the tightened mask requirement applies in the Vorderstadt street starting from house number 3, in the entire Hinterstadt street and in the entire Rathausplatz street, the authority specified. “A possible extension of the regulation will be reassessed according to further developments,” it said. Governor Günther Platter (ÖVP) had already announced such a mask requirement at a press conference on Thursday and said that he wanted to hold on to the ski races.
In the ski resorts of Ischgl and St. Anton, FFP2 masks have been compulsory in busy places and streets since Thursday. It is valid until January 20th.
