Yesterday, Thursday January 8th, there were 33 accidents on 14 roads in the province of Alicante. The AP-7 (9 reports) and the A-7 (6 reports) had the most accidents. According to the real-time incident dashboard of the Directorate General of Traffic, there were also incidents on the N-340 (3), N-332 (3), and CV-720 (2), as well as other places on the minor road network.
Torrevieja is the worst place for traffic bottlenecks right now.
The N-332 at the height of Torrevieja is the worst place for irregular traffic. There is a traffic jam or congestion between km 54 and 57.75 in both directions starting at 08:58 h.
Roadwork: lane closures and “mobile closures” on the N-340, A-31, and A-7
The research says that a lot of building and maintenance work will happen that would disrupt traffic:
N-340: Work is going on between La Aparecida (km 678.8) and Pla de Sant Josep (km 716.2) with a moveable closure in both directions (depending on the section) until 3:00 pm.
A-31 (Villena): The left lane is closed from km 182 to 185.7 in the direction of Alicante.
A-7: There will be lane closures at Alcoy, Alqueries de Beniflloret, and Pla de Sant Josep, as well as an impact on the San Isidro exit that will last until Friday, January 9, at 6:00 a.m.
N-332: There are roadworks in Torre de la Horadada (middle) that close the left lane between km 43.4 and 44.3. There is also an incident in Benissa that closes the left lane between km 175 and 174 (until 2:00 pm).
New warnings about roadblocks on AP-7, A-70, and CV-800
The most recent version brings attention to a number of cautions concerning fixed impediments, especially in:
AP-7 (Cala d’Or): There is a fixed barrier at kilometre 669.782 starting at 10:03 h.
A-70 (Santa Faz): a fixed obstacle at km 12.651 (from 09:43 h).
CV-800 (Xixona and Monnegre – Cabeçó d’Or): There are fixed obstacles at km 10.369 and 8.397, with warnings starting at 09:56 h and 09:53 h, respectively.
A-79 (El Bacarot): a fixed roadblock at km 4.87 (from 09:00 h).
CV-731 (Benidoleig): There is a fixed obstacle at km 3.42 (from 10:01 h).
There is also a fixed obstruction on the N-340 (Algoros) at km 720.208 since 08:04 h because of an accident.
Advice for drivers
Because there are ongoing incidents on the main routes (AP-7, A-7, N-340, and N-332), it’s best to depart early, be very careful in regions with roadworks, and check the traffic conditions before you start your route, especially if you’re driving around Torrevieja or through areas with barriers.
