Trucker protest slowing traffic on I-465
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Dozens of semi trucks are on a “slow roll” on I-465 around Indianapolis as a protest.
At noon, the trucks were moving slowly on, approaching I-465 between EB I-70 and Pendleton Pike. A line of trucks could be seen all the way back to Pendleton Pike.
Sid Mahant, with the Indiana Diverse Truckers Association, confirmed to News 8 that the “Slow Roll’ is a nationwide protest in hopes to spread awareness around low freight rates and a lack of transparency in brokered freight transactions.
News 8 has reached out to the organizer of the protest for comment.
Traffic on I-465 was clear as of 2 p.m. Wednesday.
