Due to challenging meteorological conditions, intensive cleaning operations are underway on roads across Georgia, the Department of Roads of the Ministry of Regional Development and Infrastructure reported.

Snow-clearing equipment is mobilized in all directions, and technical salt is being continuously applied to facilitate the restoration of traffic as quickly as possible.

As a result of these ongoing intensive cleaning operations, traffic has been successfully reinstated on the internationally significant Khashuri-Akhaltsikhe-Vale highway. Additionally, all forms of motor vehicle traffic have been restored on the section of the Vaziani-Gombori-Telavi highway, specifically from km 37 to km 49 (Tetritsklebi-Verona).

However, special traffic regulations are still in place on certain highways due to specific conditions. The Gudauri (post)-Kobi section of the internationally important Mtskheta-Stefantsminda-Larsi highway is currently closed for all types of motor vehicle traffic due to a high risk of avalanches. Similarly, the section from km 90 to km 112 of the internationally significant Akhaltsikhe-Ninotsminda highway is prohibited for all motor vehicle traffic due to blizzards and heavy snowfall. The remaining sections of this highway remain open for vehicle traffic.
