The Austrian Constitutional Court annulled the municipal regulation that closed the Ágfalva border crossing.

The Austrian Constitutional Court annulled a local ordinance that closed the Ágfalva border crossing, which had forced commuters into a lengthy detour. The closure was initially justified by the establishment of a pedestrian zone, but the court found that the municipality did not adequately assess the necessity of this measure or consult affected parties. The ruling follows a previous decision by a Burgenland court that deemed the closure problematic for Hungarian commuters. The ordinance will officially cease once the provincial government announces it.
