This footage was filmed and produced 11 November 2023.

In a decisive move, all roads leading to Grindavik have been sealed off, with unauthorized traffic strictly prohibited. The closure, initiated due to a combination of seismic activity, potential erosion, and deteriorating road conditions, is expected to persist until the Public Defense deems it safe for either limited or unrestricted traffic. Today, the Road Administration was granted access to assess the road system's condition, revealing severe damage that renders many areas impassable.

Responding to the crisis, contractors affiliated with the Road Safety Authority are mobilizing equipment and personnel to establish protective measures, ensuring the swift execution of essential projects. The Road Administration, prioritizing public safety, is collaborating wholeheartedly to address the challenges posed by the compromised road infrastructure. Stay tuned for further developments as efforts intensify to restore normalcy to the affected transportation network.
