Italy: Railway workers to strike in Campania July 21
Unionized railway workers to hold two strikes in Campania, Italy, July 21. Rail transport disruptions likely.
Unionized rail workers, including train drivers, plan to strike across Campania on July 21 to demand several concessions, including addressing scheduling issues. Workers affiliated with the Autonomous Body Volturno (EAV) plan to strike in Naples from 08:25 to 12:25 to demand improved working conditions. Officials have provided final train departure times prior to the work stoppage, which can be found here. Unionized Trenitalia high-speed drivers will also conduct a walkout from 09:00 to 17:00 across Campania.
Rail disruptions are likely across Campania, particularly in Naples, during the strike periods and may linger even after work resumes. Picket protests are possible at rail transport hubs; heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near any demonstrations that take shape.
Reconfirm planned rail travel in Campania during the strike period. Allow additional time for rail travel via Campania on July 21. Avoid all protests as a standard precaution. Strictly heed all instructions from authorities.
