Video: 9-Kilometer Traffic Jam Formed in Front of Crimea Bridge

A 9-kilometer traffic jam has formed in front of the Crimea Bridge, according to the operational headquarters of the Krasnodar region.

The weather in the Temryuk district is currently sunny and truly summery, around 26 degrees Celsius, which has led local authorities to organize water distribution for citizens stuck in traffic.

There are several reasons for the heavy traffic, including the holiday season and a significant amount of luggage in the personal vehicles of travelers, which affects the inspection time.

Authorities in Crimea have announced that they are increasing the number of checkpoint staff and personnel.
