A man has died in the multiple accident that has cut off the AP-7 near Nules since this morning. According to EFE and sources from the Emergency Information and Coordination Center have explained, in addition to the deceased man, the emergency services have treated five people with minor bruises and who are being transferred to the La Plana de Vila-real hospital.
At around half past eight, the General Directorate of Traffic had closed the AP-7, the Mediterranean Highway, near Nules, in Castellón, due to a multiple accident with up to 40 vehicles involved. The outage, which occurred at kilometer 450.6, affected both directions and means blocking highway communications between Catalonia and the Valencian Community on this Friday morning. A few minutes ago traffic was reopened towards Catalunya.
From the Castellón Fire Department’s “X” account it was reported that there were several injured and two people were trapped in a car and in a truck. Three crews and two command units were working on it at the moment.
The accident occurred, according to À Punt, due to a large fog bank, and that is why the DGT recommends “special attention” in the area.
