Re:	Spain - Bilbao Port Blockage Continues

Bilbao Port Blockage:

As of today hauliers at the port of Bilbao are continuing to block port access in protest of ocean carriers and forwarding companies using non-permitted hauliers in the port area. The blockage has been considered an illegal strike up to this point with no set end date/time. We will continue to update as more information becomes available.
