Andorra Activates Yellow Alert on Key Mountain Roads Due to Heavy Snowfall
Mobilitat imposes restrictions on CG-2, CG-3, and CG-4 routes above 1,500m amid intensifying snow; winter equipment mandatory on French access.
Key Points
- Yellow alert on CG-2 (Port d'Envalira), CG-3 (El Serrat), CG-4 (Pal) due to snow.
- Snowfall intensifying above 1,500m, especially afternoon.
- Snow chains/tyres required on French RN22, RN20, RN320.
- Trucks >19 tonnes banned on French access roads.
Andorra's road authority, Mobilitat, has activated yellow alert phase on several key routes due to adverse weather conditions. The restrictions apply to the CG-2 from Port d'Envalira, the CG-3 from El Serrat, and the CG-4 from Pal.
Meteorological forecasts predict intensifying snowfall across the Principat above 1,500 metres today, particularly during the afternoon, which could further complicate driving conditions on these roads.
Mobilitat also reported this morning that winter equipment—such as snow chains or snow tyres—is mandatory on the French access roads RN22, RN20, and RN320. In addition, trucks weighing more than 19 tonnes face circulation bans on these routes.
The measures aim to ensure safety amid the worsening snow, with impacts centred on the higher-altitude sections of the road network. Drivers are advised to check updates from Mobilitat for any changes as conditions evolve.
