Socialists to organise demonstrations against new motorway tolls

Budapest, January 29 (MTI) – The opposition Socialists are organising demonstrations in protest against the introduction of new tolls this year, deputy leader Zoltan Gogos said in Debrecen, in eastern Hungary, on Thursday.

Gogos told a press conference that the party is not against the new county e-vouchers but demands the withdrawal of tolls on by-pass roads near cities that were free to use until December 31, 2014.

Board member Karoly Beke said the demonstration will involve blocking one lane of the road at the junction of the M3 and the M0 motorways in Pest County, and also one lane of the road at the cities of Gyor, Szekesfehervar, Tatabanya, Debrecen and Nyiregyhaza.
