Operational details

Impact on traffic and traffic management

The immediate consequences of the road clash on Provincial 3 were felt in a marked way on local traffic. Rescue operations and the need to manage damaged vehicles have made the imposition of traffic restrictions unavoidable. To allow the safe intervention of rescue vehicles and law enforcement, it was necessary to narrow one of the roads of the provincial road. This measure involved the temporary establishment of an alternate one-way route along the section affected by the collision, generating understandable queues and slowdowns for vehicles in transit. Many motorists and border workers who routinely travel the road leading to the Gaggiolo customs house have found themselves facing inconveniences in their afternoon journeys. Alternate traffic management continued for the time necessary to complete the surveys and remove the vehicles from the road, gradually restoring normal road traffic.
