A fuel protest at the Stanlow oil refinery in Ellesmere Port last night came to an end in the early hours of this morning.
More than 100 farmers and truckers began blocking the entrance to the oil refinery at around 8.30pm.
The protesters eventually moved off the road and vehicles are now moving freely in and out of the refinery.
The Stanlow plant was at the centre of the fuel protests in 2000 that caused some stations to run out of petrol.
Police said the protest was peaceful and no arrests were made.
