Italy: Unionized rail transport personnel to strike in Lombardy June 16-17

Unionized rail transport workers employed by Trenord, the primary rail operator in Lombardy, plan to strike across the region 03:00 June 16-02:00 June 17. The purpose of the labor action is to demand contract changes.

Trenord rail transport service disruptions are likely across Lombardy during the strike period and may linger through the morning of June 17. Picket protests are possible at railway hubs across the region; heightened security and localized traffic disruptions will likely affect any areas where related demonstrations materialize.
