Drivers, brace yourselves! Montenegro has rolled out changes to traffic regimes on several critical road sections, and it means one thing – chaos on the roads! From total closures to alternating traffic flow, get ready for long queues and frayed nerves.
First up, on regional road R10 at Sokolovina, traffic is completely halted due to rockfall and critical repairs. Sounds like a horror movie scene, but it’s real. If you planned to take this route, forget it!
Next, reconstruction works on regional road R29 near the Barakmeni Bridge Krute bring traffic stoppages from 8 to 11 AM and 1 to 4 PM. So, plan your trips around these times or prepare to wait.
On the main road M2, section Lepenac-Ribarevina, traffic moves on a single lane alternately, with occasional stops not exceeding 30 minutes. But who likes waiting?
And that’s not all! On main road M3, section Plužine-Jasenovo Polje, traffic is controlled by traffic lights due to works. Imagine how much this will slow down traffic in the busy summer months.
Another headache is on regional road R19, where due to adaptation works on the Trešnjevik-Andrijevica section, traffic switches between two-way and one-way.
In Podgorica, Vojislavljevića street will be closed for traffic due to boulevard construction, forcing drivers to use alternative routes.
On main road M6, section Pljevlja-Đurđevića Tara, traffic regime changes from two-way to one-way due to works, and on the M6 section between Žabljak and Šavnik, traffic will be periodically stopped due to landslide repairs.
The highway is also affected – traffic runs in a changed regime, and heavy vehicles over 7.5 tons are banned on several main and regional roads during the summer period from June 15 to September 15, at specific times.
Bans also apply to buses, light and heavy, as well as special passenger vehicles like campers on certain regional road sections.
The Auto-Moto Association of Montenegro urges drivers to be extremely cautious, obey traffic rules, and avoid long trips during the hottest part of the day due to high temperatures.
All in all, if you thought driving in Montenegro was easy and stress-free, think again! These traffic regime changes are a real test of patience and nerves.
So, how are you planning to survive this traffic adventure? Already stuck in jams or got some tricks to avoid waiting? Share your stories, maybe you’ll make us all laugh or at least comfort us in this chaos!
