Italy: Public transport workers to conduct strike in Rome Oct. 28
Unionized public transport staff to strike in Rome, Italy, Oct. 28. Transport disruptions likely.
Unionized public transport employees plan to hold a 24-hour strike across Rome on Oct. 28. Workers involved in metro, tram, and city bus operations will participate in the work stoppage; however, regional trains and buses should not be impacted. Services are guaranteed 05:30-08:30 and 17:00-20:00.
Metro, tram, and bus disruptions are likely across Rome during the strike period. Picket protests are possible at transport hubs; heightened security and localized transport disruptions are likely near any demonstrations that may occur.
Consider alternate forms of transport during the strike period. Allow additional time for metro, tram, and bus travel during the work stoppage. Avoid all protests as a standard precaution. Strictly heed all instructions from authorities.
