The old National Road at Kataphourko Amfilochia is closed due to significant landslides causing major disruptions in traffic flow.
The old National Road at Kataphourko Amfilochia in Greece has been closed following a substantial landslide that has made the route impassable. The police have issued official updates regarding this situation, indicating that vehicles are being diverted to the Antirrio - Ioannina bypass at the 127th kilometer of the old Antirrio - Ioannina road towards Ioannina and the Amvrakia Road. This incident poses a considerable inconvenience for drivers in the region.
Traffic has been halted until excavation machinery can clear the rubble and debris from the road. Reports suggest that the landslide situation is still ongoing, which complicates recovery efforts. Authorities have highlighted the necessity of diverting traffic to designated alternative routes to ensure safety and minimize disruption to travel plans. The affected area is seeing a significant impact on movement due to a lack of alternative routes at this time.
Drivers planning to transit through these areas are advised to contact the Greek Police's emergency hotline for updates on road conditions prior to commencing their journeys. This measure is crucial to prevent unnecessary delays and ensure travelers are well-informed about the current state of the road network, particularly given the severity of the traffic challenges caused by this natural event.
