KTEL Intercity Bus Overturns in Crete Amid Powerful Winds

Friday, 17 April 2026/Google News/1 
A KTEL intercity bus overturned in Crete due to powerful gusts of wind. KTEL operates the main public bus network connecting towns and villages across the island, and this incident highlights the impact that strong winds can have on road travel in the region. Tourists relying on public buses for transportation should be aware that severe weather conditions can disrupt or delay services. If you are planning to travel by bus during periods of high winds, check local weather forecasts before departing and consider contacting your departure station for service updates. Renting a car or using taxis may be a safer alternative during stormy weather. Always exercise caution on mountain roads and coastal routes, where wind conditions tend to be most intense.
