Several rural roads in the Central and Northern Divisions of Fiji remain closed due to flooding, prompting authorities to urge travelers to exercise extreme caution and adhere to all road closure advisories.
In the Central Division, Savu Road in Naitasiri is among the major roads affected, currently experiencing significant flooding. Other impacted areas include Viria Village, Vatulili, and Navulokani roads, all facing flooded crossings. Additionally, Nabukaluka Delailasakau Road has encountered multiple challenges, including landslides and washouts, complicating travel conditions.

Other disrupted routes include Boubale Road (Qawa Crossing), Sevaci Korotasere Road (Nayagalevu Crossing), Dreketilailai Road (Konasami Crossing), and Vuniyalayala Road (Vuniyalayala Crossing).
The Fiji Roads Authority (FRA) is actively monitoring the situation and remains committed to providing updates as needed. Their proactive approach reflects an important commitment to public safety and infrastructure integrity during these challenging weather conditions.
As communities face these obstacles, it is heartening to see the ongoing efforts of the FRA and local authorities. While the current situation may pose difficulties, it underscores the community’s resilience and the essential role of infrastructure in maintaining connectivity during adverse weather. By staying informed and adhering to safety measures, travelers can help ensure their well-being in these trying times.
