North Rhine-Westphalia: Restrictions on local transport due to a warning strike on Friday

Cologne/Bonn (dpa/lnw) - A warning strike by the Verdi union on Friday led to severe restrictions in the city rail and bus services of the Cologne transport company (KVB). From 3:00 a.m. until the start of operations on Saturday, no KVB trams should run, as the company announced on Wednesday. For this purpose, only bus trips carried out by subcontractors are possible, which are to be displayed to passengers in the electronic timetable information.

Since the warning strike is also to take place in Bonn, no traffic is possible on the Stadtbahn lines 16 and 18 either. Customer centers and sales outlets remain closed. According to the information, Deutsche Bahn, Mittelrheinbahn and other railway companies are not affected by the warning strike.
