Road traffic once again flows across Moldavian Pass
The M-4 "Don" highway, a significant transportation route connecting Novorossiysk and Gelendzhik in Russia, has been affected by mudslides near the Moldavansk Pass. As a result, traffic disruptions and potential closures on the road have been reported, leading to delays and detours.
The Moldavansk Pass, a location previously restricted, has now been reopened for traffic. The M-4 "Don" highway, part of Russia's highway system, remains open for bus and light vehicle traffic in both directions. However, heavy vehicle traffic from Novorossiysk towards Gelendzhik is temporarily restricted.
The location of the mudslides is within the Krasnodar region of Russia, where recent incidents have caused traffic restrictions. The Krasnodar Regional Traffic Police have reported the restoration of traffic through the Moldavansk Pass.
It is important to note that the temporary restriction on heavy vehicle traffic is likely due to ongoing repairs or maintenance in the affected area. The Moldavansk Pass is not directly affected by this restriction.
For the most accurate and up-to-date information, it is advisable to check local traffic services or navigation apps for real-time updates on road conditions, possible closures, and recommended alternative routes in the area. Emergency services may also provide updates on the status of the highway and ongoing clearance operations.
The M-4 "Don" highway, a crucial part of Russia's highway system, continues to serve as a vital transportation route despite the current challenges. Bus and light vehicle traffic on the M-4 "Don" highway from Novorossiysk towards Gelendzhik is operating as normal.
We encourage all travellers to exercise caution and patience during this time and to stay informed for the latest updates on the situation.
The Krasnodar Regional Traffic Police has reported changes in the weather affecting general-news in the Krasnodar region, which may influence traffic conditions on the M-4 "Don" highway. Travelers are advised to keep an eye on weather forecasts for potential updates on road conditions.
The restoration of traffic through the Moldavansk Pass marks an improvement in road conditions on the M-4 "Don" highway, but ongoing repairs or maintenance in the affected area may lead to temporary restrictions on heavy vehicle traffic.
