The ban on all types of transport on the Transcaucasian Highway, which was introduced after the rockfall, has been lifted.

As "Kavkazsky Uzel" wrote, the ban on travel on the Transcaucasian Highway was introduced at 21:30 Moscow time on July 15 due to the rockfall and the inability to ensure the safety of vehicle traffic.

The ban on travel on the Transkam has been lifted, the South Ossetian Emergencies Ministry reported on its Telegram channel at 10:20 Moscow time. "Traffic on the Transcaucasian Highway is permitted for all types of motor vehicles," the publication says.

Recall that the Transcaucasian Highway (Transkam) passes through the Main Caucasus Range and is the only year-round communication route between Russia and South Ossetia.
