Armenia's Ministry of Territorial Administration and Emergencies says roadways in the country are mainly trafficable as of January 8. However, Berd-Chambarak, Madina-Lernahovit, Lernahovit-Gheghhovit roadways and Vardenyats mountain pass are close. There is black ice on Goris-Sisian (10-15 km) and Sisian-Zanger highways.
