No all-clear after the latest wave of strikes: Management expects next strike call by train drivers' union, which wants to fight for a 35-hour week.

After the latest wave of strikes by train drivers on the Chemnitz City-Bahn, there is no all-clear for passengers. The strike, which began on Wednesday afternoon, ended on Thursday at 9.00 am. However, the management expects the next strike to be called shortly, the company announced. The train drivers' union GDL wants to fight for a 35-hour week with these actions. According to the information, corresponding agreements have already been reached in more than 40 railroad companies throughout Germany. However, City-Bahn, which operates six lines in Chemnitz and the surrounding area, is vehemently opposed to this.
