**Pas de la Casa border with France reopens after heavy snowfall**
The Pas de la Casa border crossing between Andorra and France has reopened to all vehicles following yesterday's heavy snowstorm, the Mobility Service announced on Sunday morning.
French authorities confirmed that roads RN320 and RN22 are now fully accessible, restoring normal traffic flow into Andorra. The closure, which lasted through Saturday, stemmed from severe winter conditions that blocked the route.
From 4:30 a.m., an Andorran COEX snow-clearing machine worked alongside French DIRSO teams to clear the roads. This joint effort shortened the disruption and enabled an earlier reopening than anticipated.
The Andorran government highlighted the operation's success as a direct result of its Thursday offer to assist, made possible by a new winter road maintenance cooperation protocol approved by both countries just weeks ago. The agreement streamlines responses to adverse weather impacting cross-border links.
Mobility Andorra shared the update via its social channels, noting French approval for the full reopening. No further disruptions have been reported at this time.
