Fuel protests slow traffic for second day
BBCA number of tractors and heavy goods vehicles have formed a slow-moving convoy at the Ballygawley roundabout for a second night in protest over rising fuel costs.
About 50 vehicles were involved in the demonstration, which spanned between two neighbouring roundabouts, slowing traffic to a crawl.
It follows several similar protests across Northern Ireland on Tuesday when traffic was held up on the Sydenham Bypass, the Westlink, M2, A1, A4, A5 and A6.
The Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) issued fines and cautions to some of the people involved in Tuesday's protests.
One of the protesters, agricultural contractor Ryan McKenna, told BBC News NI: "It's hard enough to make living at this game, it's just unacceptable at the minute.
"There's a lot of anger built up, but we're trying to keep everything legitimate.
"To be honest we have better things to be at on a rainy night," he said, adding that "somebody has to take action, you have to try to do something."
Christopher Fletcher said the protesters wanted a temporary fuel tax cut until the war in Iran ends.
He said the protests were triggered by the cost of fuel, but he's also concerned about the knock-on effect for other increases.
"It's going to cost farmers more," he said.
"It's going to cost the hauliers more and that'll ultimately put the price up in the shops too.
"I suppose people just think they have to go and do something.
"Whether it'll achieve anything or not, you don't know until you try."
