D1 highway closed in Ostrava due to flooding

The D1 highway in Ostrava has been closed after flooding submerged the Prague-bound lane near Svinov, according to the National Traffic Information Center. The duration of the closure is currently unknown. Additionally, the Klimkovice tunnel on the D1 has been closed in both directions due to a technology outage, which follows a power failure that shut the tunnel for three hours on Saturday evening. The timeline for reopening the tunnel is also unclear at this time. The highway is the backbone of road transport in Czechia connecting the country to Poland near the locations where it was flooded.
