This Thursday, San Ignacio Festival in Bizkaia and Gipuzkoa, numerous journeys are expected on the roads due to a new summer\u00A0 exit operation . It is estimated that about 60,000 vehicles will cross the Biriatou  border to transport one of the most important areas.

That is why the Department of Safety of theBasque Government has called for caution  and has asked drivers to be vigilant, especially in those sections where traffic jams usually occur in this type of operation.

Specifically, the most problematic areas are the\ u00A0 A-8motorway in the sense of Cantabria, the Armiñon link, the A-1 and AP-1 link and the route tolls, so it is recommended to plan the trip in advance, avoid peak hours and consult the traffic situation  to minimize risks and waiting times.

It will be the first day of summer holidays for thousands of people , which significantly increases traffic, especially among the main road networks in the territory.
