A collision between an Andorran-registered car and a Spanish-registered van on the C-14 near Organyà has fully resolved, with traffic now normalized after several hours of disruption.

The incident occurred around 3:49 p.m. at kilometre 162.8, prompting a full closure initially reported by the Servei Català de Trànsit at 4:18 p.m. Firefighters from Bombers de Catalunya—five personnel—and two Mossos d'Esquadra units responded to the scene, where one occupant had been trapped but sustained only minor injuries. No serious casualties resulted from the crash.

The closure affected both directions between kilometres 163.8 and 168 or 169, generating queues over two kilometres that extended into Organyà town centre. No alternative routes were available at first, intensifying delays for drivers, including those from Andorra.

By 5:08 p.m., authorities implemented single-lane alternating traffic, a system that persisted through updates at 5:20 p.m. and 5:27 p.m. Emergency teams worked to remove the vehicles and secure the stretch up to kilometre 169. Around 6:45 p.m., circulation returned to normal, ending the restrictions.

Drivers had been advised to reduce speed, stay cautious in the area, and consider detours where possible. Details on the cause remain unavailable.
