Construction works on the BOAK highway near Chania are currently causing significant traffic disruptions. The BOAK is the main east-west road connecting Chania to Heraklion and is a key route for tourists traveling across northern Crete. Drivers should expect delays and possible lane closures in the Chania area. If you are renting a car and planning to travel between Chania and central or eastern Crete, allow extra time for your journey or consider traveling during off-peak hours such as early morning or late evening. Local roads through villages may serve as alternative routes, though they are narrower and slower. Check local traffic updates before departing and follow directions from road signs or traffic personnel on site.
