The police in the Reykjanes peninsula has issued an announcment regarding repairs on trail A at Meradalir
"Trail A will be closed from 4:00 a.m. until 9:00 a.m. but during those hours it is intended to carry out further work/repair on trail A to the eruption site. During said hours trail A will therefore be closed to the public and hikers will be asked to use trail C instead. The purpose of the work is to improve the trail so that it offers a more secure route to the eruption area. Hikers are kindly asked to follow these instructions so that those who will be working on the trail maintenance can utilize the hours in question to the fullest in an effort to make the trail even better."
