A collision between three vehicles occurred on the IC8, in the Sertã area, district of Castelo Branco, causing five slightly injured. The accident led to the closure of road traffic on the road, which was blocked between the junctions of Pedrógão Pequeno and Carvalhal. The competent authorities were called to the scene to provide assistance to those involved and manage traffic in the region. The IC8 is an important road that connects several localities in the central area of the country, and the closure forced drivers to look for alternative routes during the intervention period.
