As of July 6, 2026, temporary traffic rules are in place along the R1204 regional road in Shtip due to repair works at a bridge over Bregalnica River, until further notice, said the AMSM.

As of July 1, heavy vehicles exceeding 15 tons are subject to restrictions on all state roads during weekends and extremely hot days through August 31 to mitigate summer traffic congestion. 

In addition, a ban on heavy vehicles exceeding 7.5 tons is in place during weekends and holidays on the A2 highway section between Skopje and Ohrid through September 1.
