Back to newsThe BOAK highway in eastern Crete is closed today, Monday July 13, on the section between Agios Nikolaos and Neapoli. Drivers travelling between these two towns will need to use alternative routes, which will add time to journeys in this part of the island.
If you are heading to or from Agios Nikolaos, the popular coastal town on the Gulf of Mirabello, plan for delays and check local signage for diversions before setting out. The closure is affecting traffic flow in the area, so allow extra travel time if you have ferry connections, excursions, or accommodation check-ins scheduled in eastern Crete today. Local roads around Neapoli can be narrow, so drive carefully if rerouted through the village. Check for updates before departing as conditions may change throughout the day.
