Multiple unions representing transport workers plan to strike in Italy Nov. 10. The following actions are planned:

  • Intercity rail workers from the CGIL, CISL and UIL unions plan to strike nationwide.

  • Local public transport workers from the AL-COBAS union plan to strike in Milan 08:45-15:00 and 18:00-23:59 Nov. 10, impacting the metro, trams, and buses.

The actions are to denounce plans to privatize public transport and salary conditions.

Rail disruptions to intercity services are likely nationwide through Nov. 10 and to multiple forms of transport in Milan. Pickets are not anticipated; however, gatherings of striking workers are possible near major railway stations across the country; authorities could deploy increased security to monitor possible demonstrations. Violence is not anticipated.

Reconfirm all travel arrangements on Nov. 10; consider alternatives to public transport if traveling through Milan. Avoid any demonstrations as a standard precaution.
