DGT allows trucks to circulate again on the A-6 and A-52
The General Directorate of Traffic has decided to lift the ban affecting heavy vehicles on two major road axes in the northwest. This comes after the passage of the Ingrid storm left more than a thousand trucks stranded. The improvement in weather allows for an organized, controlled departure 🚛.
Resuming traffic in an orderly manner
Since Saturday morning, drivers of the blocked trucks can start moving again. The DGT is coordinating this operation to prevent new traffic jams and ensure everyone circulates safely. Agents are directing traffic to ensure a progressive flow without disruptions.
Key measures for the operation:- Drivers must follow the instructions of the authorities at all times.
- The most severe restrictions are lifted on the A-6 and A-52 highways, vital for transporting goods.
- Caution must be maintained even though conditions have improved.
Traffic resumes progressively and in a controlled manner to prioritize safety on the road.
The storm shows no respite in other areas
Although the situation is easing in the provinces of León and Zamora, the Ingrid storm remains active in other regions. Many secondary roads and mountain passes still have snow and ice, requiring various restrictions to be maintained. Travelers must check information before setting out 🛣️.
Restrictions that remain in place:- Obligation to fit chains on several mountain passes.
- Reduced speed limits on numerous sections.
- Total prohibition for buses and trucks to circulate on roads where risk persists.
A partial respite for transporters
It seems the storm decided to take a break over the weekend, but only partially. While some truckers can resume their route, others still face the uncertainty of finding closed roads or severe restrictions. Checking the road conditions is essential before any trip.
