As light snowfalls continue to paint the mountainous routes, roads are increasingly becoming slippery and hazardous for motorists. The snow, forecasted earlier today, is predicted to persist until evening. Key routes like Karvounas-Troodos, Platres-Troodos, Saittas-Troodos, and Prodromos-Troodos are particularly difficult to navigate due to the slippery conditions.
But the snow has not deterred city dwellers from venturing out. In their attempt to bask in the joy of winter, visitors have been flocking to the snowy mountains. This influx has prompted close traffic monitoring by local police authorities.
Officers are on high alert, ensuring that individuals enjoy the snow while maintaining safety. They are not only keeping a watchful eye on traffic flow but are also regulating it to minimize the risk of accidents on slippery roads. Motorists, meanwhile, are advised to stay cautious, particularly while negotiating the challenging, high-altitude routes.
Overall, despite the beauty of the snow, it’s important to drive with caution, keep safe and enjoy the winter vistas responsibly.
