An accident on the A-7, heading towards Barcelona and near Torrent, has complicated traffic into Valencia this Tuesday, adding to the usual morning rush hour congestion.

The General Directorate of Traffic has reported that the most unstable situation is concentrated on the access roads to Valencia from the south and northwest, as well as on the A-7 itself. On this road, the usual morning congestions coincide with the incident caused by the crash.
As a result, the A-7 is once again one of the most affected points, with retentions recorded between Baró and Godella in the direction of Alicante, and between Malla/La Cañada and Cruz de Gracia towards Barcelona. Furthermore, the section affected by the accident between Picassent and Mas del Jutge is contributing to worsening circulation on this corridor.
Other main roads also present complications. The V-31 shows dense traffic from Silla towards Catarroja and Valencia, and also from Sedaví to Horno de Alcedo. On the V-30, congestions are repeated at various points, especially between Horno de Alcedo and Mislata, and between Quart de Poblet and Benimàmet/Beniferri, heading towards the port or towards the links with the A-7.
Finally, other important access roads to the city, such as the CV-35, the CV-36, and the A-3, also report irregular circulation. The incidents affect sections located in San Antonio de Benagéber/Cruz de Gracia, Picanya–Horno de Alcedo, and Quart de Poblet, confirming a complicated morning for drivers entering or crossing the metropolitan area of Valencia.
