Traffic on Route 4 is heavier than usual Wednesday afternoon as commuters head home early, before planned anti-government protests are expected to begin, according to N12.
A heavy traffic jam developed on Route 4 north of Tel Aviv earlier than usual on Wednesday afternoon. According to the N12 traffic desk, congestion set in as commuters chose to return home early, ahead of planned anti-government protests that are expected to disrupt roads in multiple cities later in the day. The Zioneer has previously covered major traffic disruptions linked to the resumption of these protest waves, including clashes on Route 4 last week when drivers attacked Haredi demonstrators. The congestion is attributed to early self-evacuation by drivers in anticipation of the protests, rather than to any protest itself as of this report.
