Jordan | Rockslides detected and the Al-Mujib road (Karak - Madaba) closed as a precaution

Arab Weather App - Karak Governor Qablan Al-Sharif decided to temporarily close the Al-Mujib Karak-Madaba road in both directions, in order to preserve the public safety of citizens and property, after rockslides were detected on the road that pose a danger to its users.

For his part, Raed Al-Suhaimat, Director of the Karak Governorate Works Directorate, explained that the field teams immediately finished removing the landslides that occurred on the road, but the decision to close it came administratively from the administrative governor as a precautionary measure, due to the fear of new landslides occurring as a result of the nature of the area.

Al-Suhaimat added that the road will remain closed until Friday morning, until the road condition is assessed and its safety is fully ensured, and safe passage through it is guaranteed, in preparation for reopening it to vehicle traffic.
