Cuatro carreteras en Madrid siguen cerradas por riesgo de desbordamiento de ríos e inundaciones

A total of four roads in the region remain closed due to the risk of river overflow and flooding, as reported by the Emergency and Security Agency of the Community of Madrid (ASEM 112).

The affected roads are M-611 Rascafría, M-620 Alpedrete, M-634 Gargantilla del Lozoya, and M-637 Navafría.

On the other hand, chains are not necessary on the mountain passes in the Community of Madrid.

The Emergency and Security Agency has lowered the flood response level to 0 due to improved weather forecasts and decreased river flow. «We continue to ask the population to exercise caution during the day, avoiding approaching river banks or crossing swift water areas,» said ASEM 112 Director General Pedro Ruiz, in a statement to the media.
