Activists to protest on Highway 3 in Miskolc, Hungary, from 16:00 April 13. Heightened security, transport disruptions likely.

Warning

Activists plan to protest on Highway 3 near its intersection with Bevasarlo Kozpont in Miskolc from 16:00 April 13. The purpose of the demonstration is to demand that authorities remove tolls from the nearby M30 bypass. Demonstration organizers have stated that they intend to slow traffic in the protest area. The number of people that may participate in the protest was not immediately clear.

Heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near the protest site. Demonstrators may attempt to move to the M30 bypass and block traffic there as well. Confrontations between demonstrators and law enforcement officers cannot be ruled out.

Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Avoid travel on Highway 3 near the eastern edge of Miskolc in the afternoon and evening hours, and allow additional time if traveling on the M30 bypass near eastern Miskolc during the same period. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement officers. Immediately depart the area at the first sign that any security disturbance may occur.
