The A63 road has been cut off in Bayonne and there have been long delays following the demonstration against the price of life

Hundreds of protestsare taking place this Saturday throughout the French state, including the French Basque Country.

Shortly after 14:00, a massive demonstration took place in Baiona, after which demonstrators interrupted both directions of the A63 motorway.

After crossing most of Bayonne, thousands of people have reached exit 6 of the A63 motorway and cut off the variant.

Right now, there are miles of traffic jams in that area, because the vehicles can't move forward.

The duration of the roadblock has not been disclosed.

At the moment, there are hardly any police in the area.
