CORFU. Temporary traffic regulations have been extended on the Corfu-Lefkimi Provincial Road, affecting the traffic flow from Lefkimi towards Corfu. This measure is in effect from the ‘MARBELA’ Hotel in Agios Ioannis Peristeron up to the ‘MIRA MARE’ Hotel in Moraitika.
New Traffic Arrangements Until Monday
The new traffic arrangement involves alternating traffic flow on the Corfu-Lefkimi Provincial Road, specifically on the lane from Lefkimi to Corfu. This temporary measure commenced on Saturday, November 29, 2025, at 3:00 PM, and is expected to last until Monday, December 1, 2025, at 3:00 PM. The purpose of these arrangements is to facilitate the ongoing work for the opening and restoration of the road surface.
Restoration of the Road and Wall
The works primarily involve the restoration of a wall. The affected section of the road is critical for commuters between Lefkimi and Corfu. The authorities aim to complete the necessary repairs and restoration as quickly as possible to minimize disruption to traffic.
Drivers are advised to exercise caution and follow the temporary signage in place. The local police and road maintenance crews are on site to manage traffic flow and ensure the safety of both motorists and workers.
Impact on Local Traffic and Tourism
The Corfu-Lefkimi road is a vital artery for both local residents and tourists, especially given the location of several hotels along the affected stretch. While the temporary measures are necessary for infrastructure improvement, they may lead to minor delays. Authorities are urging drivers to plan their journeys accordingly and consider alternative routes if possible, though the alternating traffic is designed to maintain continuous, albeit slower, movement.
The restoration work is crucial for the long-term safety and integrity of the road, particularly in an area prone to environmental wear and tear. The prompt execution of these repairs ensures that the road remains safe and functional for all users.
The local administration is committed to keeping the public informed about any further extensions or modifications to the traffic arrangements. Updates will be provided as the restoration work progresses.
