The President of the Contractual Chamber of Commerce of Vojvodina, Radenko Vidakovic, told 021.rs that they had asked the police to allow them to make a ride through Novi Sad without stopping, in order to make as little traffic problems as possible.
Hundreds of vehicles can also be expected to join the protest, including associations such as Pan Taxi, Red taxi, MB taxi, Our taxi, Maxi citizens of Novi Sad, VIP taxi, City taxi, SOS taxi, Delta taxi and Taxi of Vojvodina taking part.
It is planned for everyone to gather at 12:30 on the terminus on Miseluk and from 13:00 to start the following route: Bridge of Liberty, Liberation Boulevard, Jasa Tomic Blvd, Kisacka, Jovan Subotic, Safarikova, Uspenska, Mihail Pupin Blvd, Zarko Zrenjanin, Strazilovske, Emperor Lazar Blvd, Fruskogorska, the last stop being the Strand.
How long the ride will take will depend on the speed of passing through the city streets, but there should be no stopping and the maximum planned protest time is until 3 pm.
