The General Directorate of Traffic (DGT) has activated the II Special Summer Traffic Operation due to the high volume of road trips expected during the first weekend of August. Around 5.6 million trips are anticipated, with increased mobility due to the handover between vacationers and usual weekend trips. The DGT warns of potential congestion on major roads and the obligation to carry a connected V-16 beacon for incident signaling. Alternative routes have been proposed to reduce pressure on main roads. The operation will remain active until Sunday, August 2.
