Protests taking place further up the county are causing problems on the roads.
There is slow traffic on various roads around Bodmin currently, due to a ‘Stop the coup’ protest.
Protests are taking place all over the country today, against Boris Johnson’s move to suspend parliament.
Critics have accused Mr Johnson of trying to get around parliamentary democracy to stop MPs blocking a no-deal Brexit.
It is after the Prime Minister asked the Queen to suspend parliament in September, not recommencing until 17 days before the scheduled Brexit date on October 31.
UPDATE: The protest has now ended and traffic has returned to normal.
