No public transport in Athens on Wednesday, due to strike

No public transport in Athens on Wednesday, due to strike

The metro, tram, electric railway (ISAP), trolleys and buses will not run in Athens on Wednesday, as workers' unions will participate in a 24-hour strike called by the Athens Labor Centre.

Public transport workers will stage a protest rally at the finance ministry at 12:00 noon. Strikers said that the finance ministry's new bill on public utility companies, which will be voted on in parliament on Wednesday, practically abolishes full-time work and permanent contracts.
