Truckers blockade Dublin on April 11, condemning high fuel prices and demanding help from the government. Activists will congregate in their vehicles at four locations on the motorways around Dublin, blocking traffic in the traffic that has reached downtown. The organizers said the strike would continue until their demands were accepted. The protest will be held outside the General Post Office in the city center from 09:00. The points are as follows:
M1 - Applegreen Service Station Lusk

Additional police will be deployed to monitor the action, and measures such as road closures and movement restrictions will be put in place to facilitate demonstrations. Vehicles across Dublin itself will cause significant traffic disruptions during the protests, including a complete gridlock on major routes to and from the city. Organizers called on activists to remain peaceful; However, isolated encounters with police and activists or frustrated travelers cannot be ruled out.
