The A24 is an important road linking the north to the south of the country, and the closure at kilometre 99 caused impacts on traffic during the period it was closed. The competent authorities monitored the situation during the bad weather.

No further details were immediately known about the exact duration of the closure or the specific weather conditions that led to the decision to close that section. The reopening represents the return to normality for users of that road.

Why this matters
