US: Protest forces temporary closure of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco on April 15
Protest forces temporary closure of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Calif., US, on April 15. Severe traffic disruptions ongoing.
Pro-Palestine activists are blocking traffic in both directions on Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California, on April 15. Authorities have not provided an estimate as to when the bridge will reopen.
Significant transport disruptions have been reported and will probably continue for several hours after the bridge reopens. Increased security is very likely in the area for the duration of the demonstration; skirmishes cannot be ruled out. Protesters may attempt to block other key thoroughfares in the area.
Consider alternate driving routes to circumvent the Golden Gate until the demonstration ends and traffic normalizes. Monitor local sources for updates. Heed the instructions of authorities.
