Overturned lorry forces hours-long traffic cut on A-92M in Antequera
Throughout the entire morning, vehicles have been forced to take the A-45 as an alternative, while workers try to remove the lorry
A lorry that overturned on the A-92M road in Antequera early on Thursday morning has led to the closing of the road to traffic. Drivers were diverted to the A-45 as an alternative. According to sources, at 1.30pm, the lorry was still occupying both lanes of the A-92M, specifically at kilometre 23, in the direction of Granada, and traffic remained cut off.
The incident occurred around 4.30am. The road in question joins the Alto de las Pedrizas with the border of the province of Granada. Thanks to the rapid diversion to the A-45, no traffic jams have been reported.
The Guardia Civil, road maintenance, the fire brigade and medical staff were mobilised to the scene. The 48-year-old lorry driver has been taken to Antequera hospital. The circumstances of the accident are not clear for the moment.
Delays on the MA-20
Another accident involving a motorbike and two vehicles caused two kilometres of traffic jams on Thursday morning. The incident occurred at kilometre 10.4 of the MA-20, in the direction of Torremolinos, around 7.50am. It affected the left lane at the Ortega Prados tunnel (popularly known as the false tunnel of Carlos Haya).
The vehicles involved in the accident were removed around 8.30am and traffic slowly started to resume to normal.
