Toll Highway Blocked: Detour Routes After Heavy Rains in Mbao

The toll highway connecting Dakar, Diamniadio, and Blaise Diagne Airport is heavily disrupted due to the overflow of the Mbao marsh caused by heavy rains since Sunday, with 72 mm of rainfall recorded in Mbao. The highway manager advises travelers to postpone their trips or use alternative routes via Keur Massar or Thiaroye, while exercising caution due to possible flooding. The coastal national road remains an alternative, but it is also prone to flooding and traffic congestion. Patience and proper information are essential for travelers to navigate the situation.
