According to the Ministry of Transport and Communications, snowfalls and rains occurred in many regions of the country on November 11. This necessitated road clearing operations and ice control on key highways.
Where restrictions are in place
The most significant changes affect the Too-Ashuu Pass. Due to deteriorating meteorological conditions, all types of heavy truck traffic there is temporarily restricted. The restrictions came into force on November 11 at 06:00 at the Sosnovka checkpoint.
Temporary bans on all types of trucks also apply to the 60th kilometer of the Suusamyr–Talas–Taraz highway, starting from the heavy machinery parking area.
Condition of major highways
Despite the weather conditions, some highways remain accessible. On the Bishkek–Osh highway, work is underway to clear sections and spray sand-salt mixtures. Road clearing is also ongoing at Otmok Pass, but travel is currently possible.
Rain was recorded in the Boom Gorge area, but roads remain clear and open for travel. Road services continue to monitor the situation and ensure traffic safety.
Context
Suusamyr is located in the Zhaiyl district, and the highway restrictions affect communication routes between Talas region and Taraz.
