Moscow Ring Road Eastbound Standing in Traffic Jam

Congestion Extends for Kilometers During Morning Rush Hour

The Eastern section of the Moscow Ring Road (MKAD) has come to a standstill during the morning rush hour, with traffic backed up for kilometers. The congestion began around 8:00 AM local time and has continued to worsen, with vehicles barely moving in some areas.

The cause of the traffic jam is not immediately known, but it is believed to be related to an accident on the highway. Authorities are on the scene and are working to clear the wreckage, but it is not clear when the road will be reopened.

Moscow traffic is notoriously bad, and the MKAD is one of the busiest roads in the city. The traffic jam is likely to cause significant delays for commuters and could also disrupt public transportation. Motorists are advised to avoid the area if possible or to allow for extra travel time.
