The roads cut in some sections in the Valencian Community due to storms have risen to 17, with a total of 25 affected road sections, according to the latest update from the Ministry of Infrastructures, with data from 08:59 hours. The incidents continue to be concentrated in Marina Alta (Alicante) and Safor (Valencia), and have also extended to Ribera Alta (Valencia).
In Ribera Alta, the latest problems have been registered due to flooding in Carcaixent, where CV-570 and CV-571 have been cut off. These new closures are added to the list of roads already affected by the rain episode.
Marina Alta accumulates the highest number of affected sections
