Athens metro strike from 9 p.m. Tuesday

The Athens metro system and trams will not be operating from 9 p.m. until the end of the Tuesday night shift due to a workers’ strike. The Piraeus-Kifissia overground electric railway will also be shut as part of the warning strike being held by metro, ISAP railway and tram workers. The strike is being held to highlight the “mismanagement of public transport and even negligence on the part of those responsible for the current state of fixed-rail public transport today.”

The Proastiakos suburban railway, which also serves the Athens airport, will be running as usual.
