Busy chaos: Many lines affected-what commuters need to know!

The upcoming warning strikes in the private bus industry in Schleswig-Holstein bring uncertainty for commuters and travelers. The ver.di trade union has announced that the strikes will expand to around 80 private bus companies from Hamburg and Schleswig-Holstein, which affects a total of around 3,000 employees. These companies, which also include well -known providers such as DB Regio Bus Nord and Autkraft, have announced that they will create emergency timetables in order to maintain at least a few connections. But there is no guarantee of regular operation.

The first strikes took place on October 10th and 11th, and further promotions have been announced for the period from 14 to 17 October. Ver.di points out that spontaneous strike actions are also possible, which will be announced the evening before at 6 p.m. This measure ensures that those affected can plan a little better.

background of the strike

The conflict began after the Omnibusverband Nord (OVN) declared the withdrawal of a negotiated collective agreement. This provided for an increase in wages and an inflation equalization premium. The association justifies its withdrawal with the fact that the state government wants to shorten the funds for local public transport, which makes it impossible to make the payments agreed in the collective agreement.

However,

ver.di is ready to talk and indicates that the strikes could possibly be stopped if the OVN returns to the original agreements. Nevertheless, the situation remains tense because the German bus industry not only has to deal with financial challenges, but also the ongoing tariff conflict of the railway brings great tensions. There are not yet in sight between employers and unions.

An important aspect of the strike affects school traffic. Ver.di has signaled that school bus trips in particular could be affected, but there are still precise information on the respective failures. The union will also make short -term announcements here.

Overall, it remains to be seen what effects the warning strikes will have on public transport in the region and how the companies concerned will be able to coordinate the trips in order to keep the impairments for passengers as low as possible. During this transition period, it is important for travelers to regularly check the information from the respective bus companies in order to find out about any changes in the timetable.
