Venezuela’s Transportation Ministry has announced a full 24-hour closure of the La Yaguara-El Junquito highway, beginning at kilometer 4, in both directions. The closure is necessary to facilitate critical drainage pipe replacement work. Motorists are being advised to seek alternative routes during the period of the shutdown. The Ministry is coordinating the operation to minimize disruption, but significant delays are expected. No specific start time for the closure was given in the announcement. This road is a key artery for traffic in the region, and the complete closure will likely impact commuters and freight transport. Officials have not indicated if the work is part of a larger infrastructure project.
