Road conditions in Spain
In Spain too, road conditions are difficult due to snowfall. According to the information of the General Directorate of Road Traffic, there are difficulties on more than 100 sections of roads, mainly in the north and east of the country. About 130 fragments are covered by weather alerts – black, red and yellow, which means that driving bans for trucks have been introduced. In addition, the A23 motorway between Huesca and Sabiñanigo can only be used with snow chains.
