Traffic in Zagreb’s Centre To Be Blocked During G.W. Bush’s Visit
Zagreb, March 27 (CP) – According to different Croatian media, the route between the Zagreb airport and the Westin Hotel in the centre of Zagreb will be closed to all traffic on the day of US President G.W. Bush’s arrival in Zagreb, Friday April 4.
It seems that on April 5, the second day of the US president’s stay in Zagreb, all roads he will be travelling on inside Zagreb will also be closed off to traffic.
Although the police are saying there will be no traffic disruption, residents living close to the Westin Hotel are bracing themselves for a state of siege.
Allegedly, all the trash bins will be removed from the area so that the residents will not be allowed to throw away their garbage during the visit, which is not a bad idea overall, as apart from removing the threat of bombs being set in his path, George Bush will also be spared the sight of people picking through garbage bins in search of bottles, a gruesome scene often repeated across Zagreb.
