All Saints' Day: Spain restricts heavy goods vehicles from 30 October to 2 November, with a cut on the A-62 for hauliers coming from Portugal

All Saints’ Day falls on a Sunday this year, 1 November, so the DGT extends heavy-vehicle restrictions over four days, from Friday 30 October to Monday 2 November. It’s the second major restriction period in Spain in under a month, after the Pilar bridge in October.

Day by day, per the DGT calendar

• 30/10 (Friday), 4pm–10pm: Madrid exits via the A-1, A-2, A-3 (both directions), A-4, A-5 (both directions), A-6/AP-6 up to Tordesillas, radial roads R-2 to R-5, N-6 and M-501. Also the A-62 between Cabezón de Pisuerga and Tordesillas, towards the Portuguese border, 3pm–11pm; A-3 Valencia entry, 3pm–10pm; A-8 Castro-Urdiales–Laredo, 5pm–9pm.
• 31/10 (Saturday): the same Madrid exits, now between 8am and 1pm/3pm; the A-62 towards Portugal closes again, 8am–3pm; A-8, 11am–2pm.
• 1/11 (Sunday, All Saints’ Day): only the A-8, between Laredo and Castro-Urdiales, towards Bilbao, 4pm–9pm — the only general cut on the holiday itself.
• 2/11 (Monday), 4pm–10pm/midnight: entries into Madrid via the A-1 to A-6, AP-6, AP-51, AP-61, N-6, N-110, N-603 and M-501; A-62 Tordesillas–Valladolid towards Burgos, 4pm–11pm; A-1/AP-1/N-1 Burgos–Vitoria, 4pm–9pm; A-3 Valencia exit, 3pm–9pm.
• Dangerous goods: on 1/11, 8am–3pm nationwide and until midnight in the Balearic Islands, Cantabria, Galicia, Murcia, La Rioja and the Comunitat Valenciana; on 2/11, 8am–midnight in Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, the Canary Islands, Castile-La Mancha, Castile and León, Extremadura and Madrid.

What changes for hauliers coming from Portugal

The point that directly affects the Spain-Portugal route repeats the Pilar bridge pattern: the A-62 between Cabezón de Pisuerga and Tordesillas, towards the Portuguese border, closes to heavy goods vehicles on Friday 30/10 (3pm-11pm) and Saturday 31/10 (8am-3pm). Anyone heading from Castile and León to the border should plan departure outside these windows.

On the holiday itself, Sunday 1 November, there is no general cut on that stretch — only the usual nationwide restriction on dangerous goods.
