Amsterdam bans creation of new hotels
Another piece in the overall strategy to reduce tourist flows to the city
The labour protests will disrupt trams, buses, subways, air traffic and even taxis
If you are in, or are heading to, Italy next week, pay special attention to the days 23 and 24 January since labour strikes in the public transport sector are expected to take place.
Somewhat unusually, this time around, it’s also taxi services which will be affected as cab drivers in Rome will stage a 24-hour work walkout on Tuesday, 23 January, in protest over the increasing fees for their licenses and the alleged advantage of multinationals.
Taxi drivers will get back to work the following day but then pretty much all local public transport workers in Italy will boycott their duties.
On Wednesday, there will thus be a nationwide strike by USB And Cobas trade unions, which will disrupt public transit services in major Italian cities. The reasons for the industrial action centre on issues, such as renewal of contracts and safety in the workplace.
In the Italian capital, the strike will affect bus, tram, subway and light-rail services operated by ATAC and Roma TPL, from 08.30 to 17.00 and from 20.00 until the end of service. However, at least taxis are supposed to be operational.
In Milan, services by the ATM public transit operator will be at risk the entire day except between 15:00 and 18:00. In Naples, the strike will affect public transport services from 08.30 to 17.00 and from 20.00 until the end of service.
What’s more, on 24 January, air traffic controllers have also declared their intention to strike, though this will at least happen for only 4 hours in the afternoon – from 13:00 to 17:00. As expected in that time period, flights will likely be delayed.
