The Pyhrnautobahn (A9) ('Pyhrn Motorway') is an Autobahn (motorway), in Austria. It runs through Alps by 2 two-lane tunnels: the 5,400-meter (18,000 ft) long Bosrucktunnel and the 8,320-meter (27,300 ft) long Gleinalmtunnel. The longest tunnel on the motorway is the 10-kilometer (6 mi) long Plabutschtunnel under Graz and its outskirts.
The last section of the highway was built in 2004. Some parts still have only a single roadway, including some tunnels.
The motorway south of the A2 interchange is a part of the Pan-European corridor Xa.
