The failure to meet minimum services paralyzes Rodalies for another day

The strike by train drivers in Catalunya continues to disrupt Rodalies services, with only 40% of scheduled trains operating. The union has postponed further strikes to negotiate safety improvements. Many drivers did not report for duty due to lack of formal notification about minimum service requirements. The situation has prompted the government to request information from Renfe regarding the strike's impact and to consider disciplinary actions against absent workers. The conflict has escalated as Renfe has altered long-standing agreements with drivers, leading to increased operational challenges and costs for the company.
