Ngerikiil road will be open today until Saturday for the funeral of former Senate President Johnny Reklai and the chief of Ngchesar.
Vice President and Justice Minister Elias Camsek Chin said that it will be again be closed on Sunday and will remain impassable for the next three weeks due to ongoing repairs.
Earlier the road was closed to allow repair of the failed areas of the road.
The Ngerikiil road leads to the Package B of the Compact Road.
Three different sections of the road were damaged because of the soft soil causing the road depression.
Motorists driving to the Capitol had to take the Package A route all the way to the Ngatpang Junction since February.
One section of the damaged road is now undergoing repairs while the two other sections are yet to be repaired.
