Petrol rations in Normandy due French trucker block

ROUEN, France, Nov 25 (Reuters) - The Lower Normandy region in northern France issued a petrol rationing decree on Monday as truckers set up roadblocks across the country, the local government office in the region said.

Normandy was one of the main areas where truckers, who have crippled fuel and other supplies several times in the 1990s, mounted roadblocks on Sunday night and Monday morning in protest over pay and work conditions.
