Bus operators' protest slows and hinders traffic on numerous routes

(Patria) - According to available information from the BIHAMK Information Center, the protests are not directly aimed at passenger traffic and no blockades of border crossings for passenger vehicles are planned.

Due to a larger number of freight vehicles participating in the protest, which have gathered near customs terminals and at border crossings, traffic for passenger vehicles is hindered and slowed.

Due to the high frequency of vehicles, occasional delays are possible.

Currently, at the border crossings of Izačić, Velika Kladuša, Kamensko, Bijača, Orašje, Bosanski Šamac, Pavlovića Most/Popovi, Bratunac, Strmica, Bosanska Gradiška and Rača, the freight terminal is blocked, while there are no major difficulties for passenger traffic.
