Hi Aviel!!! Nice to read you again!!! Before translate, I prefer explain the political organization in Spain. It´s quite similar to the federalism in Germany, USA... etc. We have 3 levels of government: 1 - National government - Capital Madrid 2 - Autonomic government (autonomus community) - 17 regions with their own governments and laws 3 - Local government - Town halls (with own funtions but not to create legislation) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- So, I suppose that you was reading a news article from the autonomus community of Andalusia (southern Spain ) and I´ll try translate these sentences and I hope to help you: 1- The A-92 (highway without tolls, owned by the Andalusian gob) is cut in "Huétor Santillán" due to ice, and the autonomic road (no highway, owned by the Andalusian gob too, no spanish gob) from "Jaén" until "Torre del Campo" is also closed 2. He/she/it wants to know personally (de primera mano = personalmente) the actions undertaken so far against the effects of storm and coordinate the setting up of new preventive measures against future incidents 3. This (exceptional) meeting will be before of the usual (consejo de gobierno andaluz) meeting of the andalusian gobern members, which takes place every Tuesday.
