Large anti-nuclear protestor occupies Zhongxiao West Road shutting down traffic (2014/04/27)

Anti-nuclear protests continued today with participants occupying and closing off Zhongxiao West Road for traffic. Police had attempted to confine protesters to just one lane of the roadway, though many easily crossed barricades and sat in the street, paralyzing traffic. 

Upwards of ten thousand anti-nuclear protestors occupied Zhongxiao West Road, shutting down each of the four lanes of traffic moving in either direction. From above, the scene looks quite spectacular. 

Police originally hoped to keep protestors to just one lane of traffic in each direction. However, protestors easily crossed the barricades and occupied all four lanes in each direction, leaving traffic paralyzed. 

After hearing an alarm, anti-nuclear activists laid down in the street, taking part in a mock nuclear disaster drill. 

Anti-nuclear protestors laid in the street simulating their hopelessness in the event of a nuclear disaster. Organizers of today’s event estimated the crowd at 50,000 people, though police estimate the turnout was just 10,000 people.

癱瘓忠孝西

終結核四全面廢核遊行今天登場,重頭戲”佔領忠孝西路”,原本只開放一條車道,但現場民眾,突破警方人牆和阻擋欄杆,直接佔領雙向4個車道,上萬名抗議人士,也集體就地躺下,現場交通也因此整個癱瘓,無法動彈。

放眼望去,上萬名反核人士,將忠孝西路雙向四個車道,通通佔領。而高處往下望,黑壓壓人潮,非常壯觀。

原本警方只開放最外側車道,並組成人牆和阻擋欄杆,來維持雙向交通。不過抗議人士,跨越阻擋,衝入其他三個車道,交通全面癱瘓。

等到警報聲響起,反核人士就地躺下,全體來個核災演練。

反核民眾平躺在大馬路路面,模擬核災發生時,無處可去的情況,表達對強烈反核決心,主辦單位估計,約上看5萬人參與,不過警方估計,只有1萬多人。
