Significant traffic congestion has built up on the motorway, prompting advisories for motorists traveling from the coast toward Kaunas or Vilnius to consider alternative routes. Reports indicated that the accumulating traffic was worsening, necessitating caution for commuters. Police personnel were on site managing the scene following an accident involving a lorry.
Officials confirmed that the process of clearing the vehicle was ongoing, and it reportedly took significant time for the lorry to be safely removed from the roadway. In addition to the motorway disruption, local authorities addressed a separate incident in Vilnius. According to Agnė Valiulytė, representing the Šiauliai County Police Commissioner’s Office, police efforts were focused on managing the accident site, which was complicated by ongoing road repair work in the vicinity.
Separately, another incident was reported in Vilnius where a vehicle collided with a bus, resulting in injuries to two women. The combined disruptions—the major traffic buildup, the lorry clearance, and the separate accident—have impacted travel across the region. Authorities continue to manage the situation to ensure the safety of the public while work proceeds on the infrastructure.
