Fuel Blockade Cripples Bolivian Highway: Drivers Face Losses, Demand Action
Fuel Blockade Cripples Santa Cruz-Cochabamba Highway in Bolivia A fuel blockade on the new Santa Cruz-Cochabamba highway near Warnes, Bolivia, is causing significant disruptions. Transporters, citing severe fuel shortages, began blocking the road on June 4, 2025. The blockade has led to major delays and financial losses for those involved. One transporter, interviewed by Unitel, stated, "We've been here since Thursday night waiting for fuel. The government says it won't reach the provinces, but we are also part of the people, we work and live here." He further described the added risk of theft while waiting. The ANH (National Hydrocarbons Agency) reported fuel shortages in the region, but the transporters are demanding immediate action to resolve the situation and ensure fuel delivery to northern areas. The blockade remains indefinite, highlighting the urgency of the situation and the need for a swift government response. The incident underlines the vulnerability of regional economies to fuel supply disruptions and the importance of reliable fuel distribution.
