The Atlantic Pyrenees Prefecture has reported that at 02:00 80 asymptomatic farmers with 60 tractors have blocked the A63 motorway off the northern link of Bayonne.
At dawn, as normal traffic began, Bayonne collapsed completely.
The A63 is cut in both directions between Baiona North (exit 6) and Baiona South (exit 5), and secondary roads are also included.
The North Bayonne exchanger allows drivers to drive between the A63 and the A64.
In addition, the Prefecture has banned the movement of heavy goods vehicles (more than 3,500 kg) in both directions of the Biriatou Pass, from 06:30, without specifying the completion time.
Trucks from the Basque Country to France have been advised to use the Le Perthus border crossing as an alternative route.
Farmers' protests are also taking place today in Vitoria-Gasteiz, where a tractor is called to join the mobilizations called by the National Union of Primary Sector Associations (Unaspi) against the agreement with Mercosur.
