‘Work from home if possible’
The Netherlands will have to deal with autumn storm Ciarán on Thursday. Although the storm does not appear to be passing directly over our country, the ANWB does expect misery on the road.
The ANWB therefore advises people to work from home on Thursday if possible. There is a good chance that it will not get along on the road. A spokesperson for the ANWB says that delays can quickly increase in the event of rain and wind. “Drivers will keep more distance due to rain and it can become extra stormy due to the expected wind.” In addition, incidents can cause traffic jams to become longer and delays to increase.
Now, delays along the way may not be a reason for everyone to stay at home. However, there is also potential danger in the storm when you are on the road. “Many trees are still in their leaves and therefore catch more wind.” It is difficult to predict how much traffic disruption will occur. “It just depends on where something happens,” the spokesperson said. The ANWB calls on people who do not work from home to keep a close eye on traffic information. “There will certainly be traffic jams,” the spokesperson said.
