According to reports, climate change activists Extinction Rebellion will close part of the A10 highway in Amsterdam from noon on Saturday, January 25th.
The city of Amsterdam has banned the activists from demonstrating on the A10 highway for safety reasons.

If the A10 is blocked this time as in the past, there is a possibility of disruption to the transport network.

Also, pay attention to TV and newspaper reports, and make an effort to obtain the latest information, so as not to get caught up in demonstrations or traffic jams, and if you come across a demonstration, leave the area immediately.
