The Motorway Police advised citizens to avoid unnecessary travel and delay journeys until weather conditions improve. Officials said motorway sections will reopen gradually once visibility returns to safe levels.

Drivers have been urged to reduce speed, use fog lights, and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles when travelling in fog-prone areas. Authorities stressed that caution remains essential as dense fog continues to pose serious risks on major routes.
