Cochabamba Bridge Reopened After Police Clear Roadblock
Cochabamba Bridge Unblocked: Police Clear Morales Supporters' Roadblock Cochabamba, Bolivia – Police in Cochabamba used heavy machinery on June 6, 2025, to clear a roadblock at the Khora II bridge. The blockage, set up by supporters of former president Evo Morales, had disrupted traffic for several hours. A reporter on the scene stated, "Police have successfully cleared the area with heavy machinery, removing debris and allowing vehicles to pass." The protesters, who were holding a vigil, had erected barricades of stones, wood, and even set up small fires. The reporter also noted that while the Khora II bridge was cleared, there were reports of another potential blockage further west. Police have indicated they will be moving to that area to prevent any further disruptions. The swift action by the police restored traffic flow on this major thoroughfare. While the situation remains tense, the immediate resolution of the Khora II bridge blockage is a positive development for the city.
