Restrictions on freight traffic have been imposed within Kyiv due to hot weather, according to the Ukrainian Patrol Police.
“To preserve the road surface, trucks are prohibited from traveling when the air temperature reaches +28 degrees Celsius or higher. The ban applies to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight exceeding 24 metric tons and an axle load exceeding 7 metric tons,” the agency said in a post on its Telegram channel on Sunday.
Drivers can wait out the hot spell at temporary parking areas in highway right-of-ways and near roadside service facilities, the patrol police added.
