Depending on the development of the rally, there may be restrictions on vehicle traffic on other road axes. In case of blockage, to help citizens who will circulate on these axes, Tirana Police has taken measures to divert vehicle traffic to alternative routes.
Tirana Police appeals to citizens to avoid driving on road axes that will be blocked and to use alternative routes, so as not to impede the free movement of participants in the rally.
Meanwhile, measures have also been taken at the Prime Minister's Office building, which has been reinforced due to fears of possible acts of violence during the protest. The doors of the Council of Ministers building have been reinforced, while the mushroom installation has also been removed, to avoid damage to it as in past protests.
