Icy roads in Latvia Friday morning

Take note – story published 1 year ago

At 6:30 on Friday, January 20, snow and ice on the roads of Latvia create difficult driving conditions throughout the country, said Latvian State Roads (LVC).

107 machinery units are clearing the roads.

Driving is difficult on the country's main roads A1, A2, A3, A4, A6, A8, A9, A10, A11, A12, A13, A14, A15, and P80. On regional roads, conditions are poor everywhere except around Alūksne, Bauska, Madona, Limbaži, and Valka.

On 42 gravel roads, a tonnage limit has been placed to avoid damaging the road. 10 tonnes is the maximum weight of the vehicle on those sections. The map of those roads is available here.

An interactive map on the current state of roads is available on the LVC website.
