Trucker protests block Campania highways A1 and A30 as drivers await Salvini meeting

Trucker protests in Campania are causing traffic disruptions on highways A1 and A30, with blockades and slowdowns, as drivers await the outcome of today's meeting between Transport Minister Matteo Salvini and transport representatives in Milan. On the A1, two kilometers of queue are reported between Napoli nord and Caserta nord toward Rome. The A30's Nocera Pagani exit is closed in both directions, with queues at Nola. At Avellino Est on the A16, hundreds of trucks are parked on the emergency lane, creating long lines toward Naples. For the third consecutive day, truckers and farmers are protesting fuel and raw material price increases. Fresh produce and basic goods like fruit and meat are becoming scarce in supermarkets, following an October 10 strike and prior demonstrations at Avellino ovest and Grottaminarda toll booths.
