Complications on the Pan-American Highway

The morning became complicated on the Pan-American Highway. Respecting signals and following the instructions of officers is key to ensuring traffic flows without accidents on this stretch of the Pan-American Highway, one of the country's busiest roads. They are currently allowing passage, controlling traffic, and preventing the situation from escalating, while protecting drivers traveling through the area. The company Naturgy has been notified and is already coordinating the work to lift the pole and repair the damage. According to the preliminary report, the work could take around two hours, weather and conditions permitting. Authorities are asking for calm behind the wheel. The incident forced the temporary closure of the right lane heading towards the interior of the country for safety reasons. Units of the National Police have been in the area since early morning. An electrical pole came down in the middle of a curve, right after the Sajalices area, heading towards the town of Chame.
