Drivers on the BOAK highway between Neapoli and Agios Nikolaos should expect brief traffic interruptions on Friday, May 8. Controlled blasting operations are scheduled as part of ongoing construction work on this section of the east-west highway. Authorities will temporarily halt traffic during each detonation, after which traffic will resume normally. The disruptions are expected to be short in duration. Tourists driving east toward Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, or the Lasithi region should allow extra travel time and follow on-site signage and traffic personnel instructions. No road closure is anticipated, only rolling stops during the blasting windows.
