Western University has closed some campus roads “indefinitely” amid an ongoing labour disruption led by CUPE Local 2361. The strike began over a week ago after Western support workers set up picket lines following stalled negotiations with the university over pay. Western spokesperson Stephen Ledgley stated that the decision to maintain road closures was made to “help ensure the safety of picketers and all community members” and will continue until “the end of this labour disruption.” According to The London Free Press, these closures have caused significant delays and traffic jams for students, staff, and commuters.
