On the opening day of the Dornbirn Autumn Fair, activists from the group ‘Last Generation’ caused quite a stir: they paralyzed both the Dornbirn Süd exit and the Schweizerstraße. After two hours, they voluntarily ended the protest.
Shortly before 10 a.m., the activists glued themselves to the sidewalk while honking loudly. While freeway access was still possible, traffic to the exhibition center ground to a halt.
Highway completely closed
For safety reasons, the police closed the exit of the highway completely and diverted traffic. A short traffic jam was quickly resolved. After about two hours, the activists voluntarily ended their protest – they had deliberately chosen a glue that loses its effectiveness after a certain amount of time.
Activists are being charged
The climate stickers are still in danger of running into trouble, however, as the campaign has not been registered – meaning all participants should expect to be reported. But you are happy to accept that for a good cause, emphasized Marina Hagen-Canaval, spokeswoman for the ‘Last Generation’: ‘We have again sent a clear signal, that was our goal.’
