Protesters associated with the Black Lives Matter movement on Sunday evening blocked westbound lanes of California’s Bay Bridge, reportedly gridlocking traffic for nearly two hours.

The protesters blocked traffic with a caravan of vehicles and  spray painted “BLM” on the bridge that goes from San Francisco to Oakland, before being stopped by authorities, according to SFGate.com.

The roadblock reportedly started at about 4:30 p.m. and continued for more than an hour, with traffic finally starting to move slowly by about 6:25 p.m.
