Traffic chaos is causing major problems on the roads leading to Tivat Airport in Montenegro, with heavy congestion creating frustration for passengers, tourists and local residents during the busy summer season. Reports indicate that long lines of vehicles have formed around the airport access roads, while some drivers are ignoring traffic rules in an attempt to move ahead. Improper lane changes and other maneuvers are reportedly making the situation even worse, adding to delays and confusion.
The problem is particularly significant because Tivat Airport is one of the main entry points for tourists visiting Montenegro’s coast. During the summer months, thousands of visitors arrive in the area, putting considerable pressure on the surrounding roads. Drivers and passengers have also complained about the lack of visible police presence to regulate traffic. Without traffic control, some motorists reportedly attempt to move ahead of others, creating an increasingly difficult situation for everyone waiting.
The congestion affects both people arriving at the airport and those trying to leave. Taxis, private cars, rental vehicles and buses are all competing for limited road space, particularly when several flights arrive or depart around the same time. For tourists, the situation can create a stressful start or end to their holiday, as delays on the approach roads make it difficult to predict how long the journey to or from the airport will take.
The latest situation has once again raised questions about traffic management and infrastructure around Tivat Airport, particularly during the peak tourist season. Travelers heading to the airport should allow extra time and be prepared for possible delays. With reports of traffic rules being ignored and limited traffic control on the ground, what should be a short journey can quickly become a much longer and more frustrating experience.
