Widespread delays on Rodalies due to "incidents with train drivers and trains"

BarcelonaThe Rodalies service is operating this Monday once again with widespread delays. Renfe sources have specified that there are "incidents related to train drivers and trains" that are being analyzed, according to information from ACN. This situation, which comes before three days of strikes -two by train drivers and the general strike-, already occurred over the weekend, with delays reaching an hour.

On its channels, Rodalies informs that trains "are running outside their usual schedule and may see their travel time increased". And it recommends that users consult the screens and monitors at the stations to know the extent of the incidents. In addition to the delays, the circulation of the R7 is interrupted, for which reason users are recommended to use the R4 trains and alternative road service has been established between Cerdanyola del Vallès and Cerdanyola Universitat.

The new morning of delays arrives before three days that were already expected to disrupt the service. On Tuesday and Thursday, a double train drivers' strike has been called, while Wednesday is the day of the general strike, called throughout the State in defense of the right to housing and against the high cost of living. On Tuesday and Thursday, minimum services of 66% are scheduled during peak hours and 33% during off-peak hours, while on Wednesday there will be 25% minimum services during peak hours and there will be no service for the rest of the day.
