Police: Evacuate Grindavík immediately!

The police in Suðurnes have asked people to evacuate Grindavík due to a volcanic eruption that has started  north of town. It is not possible to pass through Grindavíkurvegur road.

“We want to ask that drivers do not block roads and create unnecessary danger by stopping on roads and in road edges. This is extremely important! Keep roads open so that people can evacuate and emergency responders can get to and from the area,” the South-South police say in a Facebook post.
