Freedom Convoy Supporters Head Through Northumberland County Slowing Traffic Along Highway 401 – Again

In Local, Photo Gallery

A number of vehicles involved in the Freedom Convoy passed through slowly along Highway 401 on Tuesday, February 15, 2022.

Transports and other vehicles were heading westbound along Highway 401 and came through Northumberland County starting at approximately 4:30 p.m. through the Brighton area and heading west.

It’s unknown exactly how many vehicles were involved and how many were caught up in the slow rolling protest, but one person who was heading eastbound told Today’s Northumberland the backlog was approximately six kilometres long.

At least one of the vehicles in the convoy was at the protest in Ottawa.
