Airbus workers will protest on major roads in Cadiz, Spain, from 19:30 July 1. Increased security, localized disruptions likely.
Event
Workers employed by Airbus Puerto Real will demonstrate in Cadiz from 19:30 July 1 to demand the local Airbus facility remains open. Participants will gather in Plaza Glorieta Ingeniero La Cierva before marching to Puertas de Tierra. Attendance could reach the low thousands.
Police will likely deploy to monitor and facilitate the march. Localized disruptions are likely. Protesting Airbus workers have erected barricades on major roads during previous protests.
