A brief traffic interruption occurred on the BOAK highway between Neapolis and Agios Nikolaos, in the eastern part of Crete. The BOAK is the main east-west motorway connecting Heraklion to the eastern regions of the island, and this section is a key route for travelers heading to popular destinations such as Agios Nikolaos, Elounda, and Spinalonga. The disruption lasted only a few minutes and has since been resolved. Tourists driving along this corridor should be aware that short-notice closures can occur on this route, particularly during ongoing construction work related to the motorway expansion. If you are planning to travel between central and eastern Crete, allow extra time and monitor local traffic updates before setting out.
