The duration of traffic restrictions on the European Games lanes in Baku has been extended for 10 days.

Drivers can use the Game lanes in accordance with road signs and marking lines, Chief of Main State Traffic Police Office’s public relations department, Police Colonel Kamran Aliyev told APA.

“They can’t use lanes where there are prohibition signs. Otherwise they will be fined in accordance with the law,” he added.
