  "account": "A coastal road in Spain will be closed for bridge replacement works, causing significant disruption for nearly three weeks. The eight-kilometre N-332 road between Santa Pola and La Marina will close in both directions from 8am on Monday 16 November, with traffic being diverted via the CV-865, CV-851 and CV-853 routes. Drivers using the N-332 between these two coastal communities should expect to face delays as they navigate the alternative routes. The closure is scheduled to end at 1pm on Friday 4 December, though the exact timetable may change depending on various factors such as weather conditions and work progress. Spain's Ministry of Transport and Sustainable Mobility confirmed that the closure would affect both directions between kilometre 79.6 and 87.6. The ministry emphasized the need to close the wider stretch to ensure the bridge's safe replacement. Drivers should allow extra time for their journeys and check the latest traffic information before setting out, as any changes to the works timetable could extend the diversion period.",
