difficult to travel for employees of the Principality
Many sectors have responded to the call of several unions such as the CGT, the FSU or Solidaires. As a result, a national strike is scheduled for Tuesday, October 18.
The SNCF announces it on its website: due to a national interprofessional social movement, the circulation of trains will be disrupted.
If the Nice-Marseille line should not suffer from train cancellations, it is quite the opposite for the line between Nice and Monaco where more than one in two trains was canceled this morning.
The afternoon promises to be under better auspices even if the traffic remains difficult. To move in the hinterland, same galley. Only one in three trains is in service on the Nice-Tende line and one in two trains to go to Grasse.
Depending on the scale of the protests, the union is considering a renewal.
At the national level, the SNCF provides for disruptions on several lines but undertakes to warn the injured travelers by email or SMS. The company will try to exchange, at best, the tickets or refund the passengers directly without any costs.
Urban transport escapes unscathed. The CAM like Lignes d’Azur in Nice does not benefit from any line interruption. Only a few occasional cuts are to be expected on line 1, depending on the route of the processions of demonstrators.
Feel free to search for and download the strike timetable for your line, available at the SNCF website.
