The unions of public transport staff have announced a series of work stoppages during Wednesday’s 24-hour strike, ANA reports.
The management of both the metro and tram services (STASY S.A.) and the bus services (OSY S.A) have contested the strike action in the courts, asking that it be ruled illegal and abusive, with the court’s ruling expected later on Tuesday afternoon. Based on the strike action announced by the various unions, public transport services on Wednesday will operate as follows:
Buses will operate from 09:00 until 21:00
Trolley buses will not operate throughout the day
Metro lines 2 and 3 will operate from 09:30 until 15:00
Metro line 1 will carry out its routes between 09:00 and 17:00.
Tram services will be conducted from 08:00 to 22:00
Also participating in the 24-hour strike are railway workers (trains and urban railways). Nevertheless, the train drivers’ union, in order to facilitate the citizens’ participation in the strike, decided to hold work stoppages from the start of the morning shift until 09:00 and from 17:00 until the end of the shift.
Furthermore, there will be no taxis in Athens throughout the day.
