A road accident occurred on Tuesday morning in the Lasithi region of eastern Crete, near an active construction site along the BOAK highway corridor. An elderly couple was involved in the collision. The BOAK is a major east-west motorway currently under development across Crete, and construction zones along its route create areas of altered traffic flow and reduced road width.
