Metro. Strike with minimum services, but there are closed stations

An arbitration tribunal has established minimum services for the partial strike of Lisbon's Metro on October 28 and 30. This decision marks a departure from previous rulings that favored the Metro over other public transport. During the strike, only select stations will remain open, and 25% of normal service will operate during peak hours. The strike involves management and workers responsible for operations, with repeated strikes raising concerns about the impact on commuters. The tribunal emphasized the imbalance between the limited number of striking workers and the extensive disruption caused. A dissenting opinion argued that the imposed services violate constitutional rights and do not address essential social needs.
