Bad weather is reported along the A8 Milan-Varese motorway, with heavy rain in particular near Arona. The weather situation is also affecting the stretch between Sesto Calende and Vergiate, up to the junction for A8-A26 / A26 Trafori.

Instructions for motorists:

• Moderate speed: Wet roads increase the risk of aquaplaning.
• Increase the safety distance: Maintaining an adequate distance from the vehicle in front is essential to avoid rear-end collisions.
• Use of headlights: Activate the headlights even during the day to improve visibility.
• Avoid sudden maneuvers: Sudden braking and swerving can cause loss of control of the vehicle.

We recommend that all motorists pay particular attention and follow any indications from the road authorities until the weather conditions improve.
