Traffic haywire in the port area of ​​Ravenna, queues of trucks blocked and hundreds of workers who are unable to leave their jobs or enter to change their colleagues' shifts.

The meals did not even arrive to those who were in the factory.

This is the picture of what is happening in Ravenna in the last few hours for a 'no Green pass' demonstration which has been growing gradually since the morning and which has a few hundred demonstrators.

There is a deployment of law enforcement officers on the spot.

"I am pestered by phone calls from delegates and port workers who are blocked - Marcello Santarelli, Filt Cgil trade unionist from Ravenna told ANSA - They do not question the right to demonstrate, but not in these ways" because in fact blocking the only two roads through which one moves in the area (the rest is surrounded by the sea) "it also creates a potential security problem". The one affected by the protest is an industrial area "where the most disparate goods pass, if something happens not even the firefighters manage to arrive". "The demonstrators are minimally port workers - underlines Santarelli - for the most part they are workers from other sectors, even from other Emilia-Romagna cities and arrived from outside the region".

On the first Monday after the introduction of the compulsory Green pass in the workplace, in Bologna everything is proceeding regularly on the transport front. For today, all the regional trains of Trenitalia and also those of Tper, the public transport company, are scheduled. Start of the morning without criticality also for the buses in service in the territory of the Metropolitan City of Bologna.

Regular operations at the Bologna Freight Village, the nerve center of the flows of goods and logistics in the Center-North to which 130 companies belong and through which 5 thousand heavy vehicles transit a day.

A buffer point has been set up on site since last Friday to allow those without vaccines to work.

On the first day, 150 tests for coronavirus were carried out, today, Sergio Crespi, general manager of the Interport, tells ANSA, "double this is expected and the organization holds up without problems".
