Difficult weather conditions persist
Источник:
The road was closed at 07:50. According to the State Traffic Inspectorate of Stavropol Krai (Gosavtoinspektsiya Stavropolskogo Kraya), the reason is a weather hit on all fronts: strong side wind, blizzard, and practically zero visibility.
The difficult situation persists, but now traffic police crews have organized reversible traffic in both directions. It is not reported when the road will be fully opened.
In such weather, one must drive with particular caution, observe the speed limit, and be more attentive, because it is difficult to see even a car moving ahead. Drivers are advised to refrain from trips in this direction.
