Kilometer 39 of the Cajamarca (Tolima) -Calarcá (Quindío) corridor presented a rock slide that caused the total closure of the La Línea road due to the risk that this presents for drivers and vehicles.
The road prevention measure was taken from 1:00 pm and what is reported is that it could be extended for six hours or more, according to Captain Mauricio Díaz, commander of the Quindío Traffic and Transportation Police.
“We have a total closure of the Las Américas toll located in Quindío because of what happened in the sector known as Cerro Bellavista, a jurisdiction of Tolima where mineral material has fallen on the road, which leads us to take preventive measures,” said Captain .
The road authorities such as Invías have already been present on the site to carry out the respective works that result in the removal of the large rocks that are obstructing the passage, while the engineers of the entity carry out the evaluation to determine if the terrain is safe or not for the passage of motor vehicles.
The options so far that the National Police gives to travelers is either wait for them to enable the passage or take the alternate route through Alto de Letras. So the recommendation is to be attentive to # 767, where information on the status of this and other national roads is constantly being reported.
It is estimated that 95,000 vehicles circulate on the main roads in the department of Quindío during Holy Week, where La Línea will have a special flow.
Finally, given the restriction for cargo vehicles that when they arrive at the site are found with the novelty, the authorities are requesting to enter the trucks and trailers to the parking lots in the Quindian area.
