Italy: Public transport employees to strike in Milan May 31

Unionized public transport staff to strike in Milan, Italy, May 31. Transportation disruptions likely.

Informational

Unionized public transport personnel employed by Azienda Trasporti Milanesi (ATM) plan to strike in Milan on May 31. The purpose of the work stoppage is to demand salary increases. ATM is the primary operator of Milan's metro, bus, and tram networks. Participants will halt services from 08:45 to 15:00 and from 18:00 through the end of service.

Public transport disruptions are likely during the strike hours and may linger into the early morning of June 1. Picket protests are possible at the ATM headquarters on Foro Buonaparte and at public transport stations; heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near any demonstrations that take shape.

Reconfirm public transport operation schedules for May 31. Allow additional time for travel via public transport, including outside of the strike hours. Strictly heed all instructions from authorities.
