Back to newsA road accident occurred near the second tunnel of Apomarmas on the main highway in eastern Crete, where a vehicle struck the central divider. The incident caused disruption along this stretch of road, which is a key route for travelers moving between Heraklion and the eastern parts of the island. Drivers heading toward Agios Nikolaos or Elounda should expect potential delays in the area and are advised to drive with extra caution through the tunnel zones, where reduced visibility and narrow lanes increase risk. Always reduce speed when approaching tunnels on Cretan highways, keep a safe following distance, and stay alert for emergency vehicles or stopped traffic ahead.
