Reykjanesbraut closed due to maintenance
The road will be open for traffic from Reykjavik to KEF international airport.
Due to pavement maintenance, Reykjanesbraut will be closed from Grindavíkurvegur towards Reykjavík from 20:00 on Wednesday 16th of November until 20:00 on Thursday 17th of November. Reykjanesbraut will be open for traffic from Reykjavik to KEF international airport throughout the construction period.
Reykjanesbraut is to be paved over a 2,7 km section by the smelter in Straumsvík.
There will be a detour via Grindavíkurvegur (43), Suðurstrandarvegur (427) and Krýsuvíkurvegur (42) for those on their way to the capital. Since the route is longer, drivers must add about 40 more minutes to their travel time to Reykjavík. There could also be some traffic delays and drivers are asked to drive carefully and show consideration.
The speed on Krýsuvíkurvegur will be reduced to 50 km/h in several places.
The road will be closed at Straumsvík and the intersection at Grindavíkurvegur.
Drivers are advised to drive safely.
