This isn't a local scandal, this is survival.

The article discusses the complete closure of the state road at Kluže, which begins mid-month and lasts until June of the following year, due to the installation of protective nets caused by falling rocks. The author, Siniša Germovšek, criticizes the Slovenian Infrastructure Directorate for failing to inform local residents in Bavšica and Log pod Mangrtom about this decision. He highlights the negative impact on daily life, including difficulties for people with health issues traveling to hospitals, workers commuting to work, and the disruption of tourism and recreational activities. The closure is compared to the previous closure of the Vršič pass, with similar concerns raised about the lack of alternative routes and the disregard for local communities' needs. The author calls for accountability and action against the perceived violation of basic human rights, urging the authorities to take responsibility.
