Information regarding potential traffic disruptions in Kaunas has emerged following a post on the Panemunės community’s Facebook group. While the source noted that no official announcement had been issued, the post cited confirmation from the mayor indicating that the bridge connecting several southern parts of the city may be closed from June 15 through September 1. If accurate, this would represent a significant alteration to daily traffic patterns in Kaunas.
The affected bridge is a crucial artery, linking areas such as Panemunė, Petrašiūnai, and Vaišvydava, and is utilized daily by thousands of commuters. In response to these developing reports, the portal “Kas vyksta Kaune” formally contacted the Kaunas City Council on June 7th. The inquiry sought official confirmation regarding planned repair work on the road spanning the hydroelectric power plant, specifically requesting details on anticipated traffic restrictions, the commencement date, and the expected duration of any work.
Separately, unrelated news reported a significant theft incident in Vilnius. Authorities confirmed that a large safe was recovered from the Neris River following a theft in the city’s old town.
