State Police appeal for caution on the roads after snowfall and rain

The State Police appeal for increased caution during these hours, as unstable weather has caused rain and snow in most of the country.

The most problematic road axes include the Bypass-Qafë Murriz in Dibër, which is blocked, and the Fushë Arrëz – Iballë and Qafë Thanë – Librazhd segments, which are facing traffic difficulties.

Police announcement:

Due to bad weather with snowfall in several regions of the country and rainfall, the State Police has increased the presence of Traffic Police officers in the field and General Patrols, with the aim of monitoring vehicle traffic, preventing accidents and assisting road users in need.

The police appeal to drivers to be vigilant and follow the instructions of the Traffic Police.

Current situation on road axes:

• The “Bypass-Qafë Murrizë” road axis in Dibër has been blocked by the Dibër and Tirana Traffic Police to avoid obstacles and road blockages due to the high intensity of snowfall. The contracting firm is working to clear the road of snow.

• The Fushë Arrëz – Iballë road axis, in the Qafë Shari – Laku i Ballçit segment, is currently impassable due to snowfall and strong winds. The Fushë Arrëz Municipality is taking measures to send vehicles (Fadroma) to open the road.

• The Qafë Thanë – Librazhd road axis is experiencing traffic difficulties for trucks due to continuous snowfall.

• Across the country, other road axes are open. Snowplows are on the ground and continue to work to clear the roads and spread salt.

At the same time, measures have also been taken on national and urban road axes due to the rainfall, increasing traffic police patrols.
