Picket of Around 60 People Disrupts Traffic and School Access in Ibiza During 11 November Strike

12 November 2026 г.

A trade-union picket involving approximately 60 people moved through Ibiza Town during the early hours of Wednesday 11 November, disrupting traffic at several key access points and making it more difficult to enter some educational centres during the general strike.

According to UGT sources cited by Europa Press, the group was moving through the city from early morning. The union described the initial hours of the strike as calm and said the picket was proceeding without incidents.

The first major disruption was reported at around 07:00 at the Joan XXIII roundabout, where participants interrupted traffic in both directions along Avenida Sant Antoni de Portmany. The action affected vehicles entering Ibiza Town as well as those travelling towards Sant Antoni. Traffic on the E-10 in the direction of Can Misses was also affected.

Access to educational centres was disrupted, including at IES Isidor Macabich, according to reports from Europa Press and local media.

Picket Moves Towards Cetis and Central Ibiza

After 08:00, the participants began moving away from the Joan XXIII roundabout towards the Cetis bus station.

The group subsequently continued along Avenida España, stopping outside the Consell Insular d'Eivissa before proceeding along Avenida Isidor Macabich.

Local Police and National Police officers monitored the movements of the picket during the morning.

UGT told Europa Press that the approximately 60 participants were moving through Ibiza without problems, describing the opening hours of the strike as peaceful.

Public Transport and Essential Services Continue Operating

Despite the temporary traffic interruptions, public services continued operating during the morning.

Waste collection was not significantly affected, while public transport maintained its services. Some occasional delays were reported on bus routes, but minimum-service arrangements helped maintain mobility across the island.

The morning disruptions formed part of the wider 24-hour general strike called on 11 November over housing affordability, wages and the cost of living.

The strike also included a separate demonstration in Ibiza during the evening. That march was organised for 18:00 and followed a route from the Figueretas area along Avenida de España towards Parque Reina Sofía.

The morning picket and the evening demonstration were separate actions within the same day of industrial action.
