Severe weather and road disruptions in Croatia and ~~Montenegro~~ Balkans

Severe weather and strong winds caused significant transport disruptions across Croatia and Montenegro in early November 2026. In Croatia, the Croatian Automobile Club (HAK) reported the closure of the A1 motorway between the Sveti Rok and Posedarje junctions, along with the closure of the Paški Bridge and the Maslenica–Zaton Obrovački road. Restrictions were also placed on the Adriatic Highway, with certain sections open only to passenger vehicles. Maritime services, including ferry and catamaran lines, faced suspensions. In Montenegro, the Auto-Moto Association of Montenegro (AMSCG) warned of slippery road conditions and potential landslides in mountain regions. Traffic restrictions and alternating flows were also noted due to ongoing road reconstruction projects. By November 7, weather conditions continued to impact the Dalmatia region of Croatia. Wind restrictions were implemented on various sections of the Adriatic Highway, specifically banning motorcycles, vehicles with trailers, and double-decker buses on several state and local roads. Maritime services, such as the ferry line between Ploče and Trpanj, also experienced suspensions. On November 7, disruptions expanded to include Bosnia and Herzegovina, where morning fog reduced visibility in valleys and higher elevations, alongside persistent landslide risks near cliffs and gorges. Significant construction on the A-1 highway in Bosnia and Herzegovina includes the closure of the Hercegovina bridge toward Počitelj-Bijača and lane restrictions in the Hercegovina tunnel. In Montenegro, roads remain wet and slippery, with alternating traffic on the M-6 Pljevlja–Žabljak route due to bridge reconstruction and nighttime lane restrictions at the Sozina tunnel scheduled through June 2027.
