Take note – story published 1 year ago

On Thursday morning, snow and ice make driving difficult in some places in Latvia, particularly in Zemgale, Vidzeme, and Latgale, Latvian State Roads said.

65 maintenance units are working on the roads.

Driving is difficult on the main roads A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, A9, A10, A12, P80 and on regional roads near Bauska, Jelgava, Rīga, Ogre, Aizkraukle, Valmiera, Valka, Alūksne, Gulbene, Madona, Ludza, Daugavpils, Preiļi, Balvi, and Cēsis.

43 road sections currently have tonnage limits imposed due to thaw.  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.

Thursday will be wet with snow, rain and sleet, and the temperatures will range around zero from -1 C to +4 C.
