Bolivian Workers Block Key Bridge in Quillacollo, Disrupting Traffic to Western Regions

Early this morning, members of the Central Obrera Departamental (COD) set up a blockade on the Huayculi bridge in Quillacollo, effectively cutting off vehicular traffic heading toward the western regions of Bolivia. The protest began in the early hours, catching commuters and transport operators off guard on this vital route. The COD is demanding attention to outstanding labor issues, though specific demands have not been detailed. The blockade is causing significant delays and rerouting, affecting both local traffic and long-distance transportation to the western part of the country. Authorities have not yet intervened, and the situation remains tense as negotiations are reportedly underway.
