The crowds are still on the roads, on the bridge of Krka the column from Kraljevica to Omišlje

The Croatian Automobile Club (HAK) reported increased traffic congestion on major roads leading to the coast and inland areas, as well as at entrances to tourist centers. Traffic jams were noted at toll stations, intersections, tunnels, rest areas, and most border crossings. On the A1 motorway between Zagreb, Split, and Dubrovnik, traffic was heavy near the Bosiljevo II junction heading towards Zagreb, with occasional stop-and-go conditions. Long queues formed at the Demerje and Lučko tolls in the direction of Zagreb, while traffic toward the coast remained smooth. On the section from the Gospić junction through the Sveti Rok tunnel to the Rovanjska junction toward the coast, traffic was slow with intermittent stops. The Krčk Bridge (DC102) had a queue stretching from the Kraljevica junction to Omišalj in the direction of the island, but no queue was present in the opposite direction. On the state road DC1 between Gračac and Knin, traffic jams and queues formed in the construction zone near Otrić. HAK advised drivers to adjust their speed and driving style according to road conditions.

HAK: Columns as long as 7 kilometers at the entrance to Zagreb, traffic jams and on the roads to the sea

The Hrvatski Autoklub (HAK) reported increased traffic congestion on major roads, urban streets, and bypasses in Croatia, with a seven-kilometer-long queue at the Zagreb West interchange heading into Zagreb. While most roads experienced minimal restrictions or delays, occasional stops occurred in work zones. On the A1 motorway between Zagreb and Karamatići, there were no significant delays before the Lučko toll, but traffic density increased between Lučko and Bosiljevo 2 towards the coast. The A2 motorway near Trakošćan had a one-kilometer-long queue in the direction of Zagreb, while the Zagreb West interchange had a four-kilometer-long tailback. Traffic was also heavier at some border crossings, ferries, and ports. HAK urged drivers to adjust their speed and maintain safe distances. Additionally, catamarane routes operated by Jadrolinije between Split–Hvar–Split and Split–Bol–Split were suspended.
