Protesters are reportedly blocking the CA-5 Highway near Comayagua, Comayagua Department, on April 30. The demonstrators are residents of Concepcion de Soluteca who are demanding that authorities repair roads in their communities. The CA-5 Highway links Tegucigalpa and San Pedro Sula.
Disruptions to traffic are likely to continue in the coming hours; passengers traveling to Palmerola International Airport (XPL) or Toncontin Airport (TGU) could face delays. Authorities will likely deploy to the demonstration site. Clashes are possible if security forces try to disperse protesters.
