Road Safety Alert: Hazardous Conditions Due to Weather

Due to prevailing weather conditions, the Police are warning drivers about wet road surfaces in various areas. In mountainous and semi-mountainous regions, as well as higher altitude areas, there is a risk of slipperiness due to frost during the morning hours. Specific roads are open only to four-wheel drive vehicles or require the mandatory use of anti-slip chains, such as the Pedoula – Prodromou, Prodromou – Lemithou, and Kakopetria – Pinewood – Pedoula roads. Furthermore, roads with landslides are reported, including Kalopanagiotis – Moutoulla – Pedoula and Kampou – Orkontas – Kato Pyrgos. The Police remind drivers to adhere to the traffic code and road signs to prevent accidents, while noting that road works may affect traffic flow.
