UK: Activists plan Anti-ULEZ protest in London April 27
Activists plan anti-ULEZ protest at Trafalgar Square, London, UK, 12:00-16:00 April 27. Increased security, disruptions likely.
Activists will gather for a protest in London on April 27. Participants will gather in Trafalgar Square from 12:00-16:00 to denounce the ultra-low emission zone (ULEZ) restrictions implemented in the city in 2023. Attendance levels are unclear, but previous similar events have attracted several hundred participants.
Police will likely deploy additional resources to monitor the gathering. Related security measures may prompt localized transport disruptions. While widespread violence is not anticipated, low-level scuffles between police and protesters cannot be ruled out.
Avoid the protest as a standard precaution. Allow additional time if traveling near Trafalgar Square the afternoon of April 27. Immediately depart the area at the first sign of any security disturbance. Strictly heed all instructions from law enforcement personnel.
